This one looks familiar from a previous post, probably from you.
Prodeo ares ( not a combination finder like Q3) does not find this one, but plays Nf6 after around 40 minutes. After pxf6, Bxf6, Rybka 3 for one believes that black is slightly ahead.

I'm probably going to replace this one because it seems likely there are two solutions (Rb2+ and Rxe2).

I've been looking at this one as a replacement:

[d] r2q2k1/p5pp/1p1b2n1/2pPp3/4N3/3QB1P1/PPP3P1/2K4R w -

(Beliavsky-Ivanovic, YUG-chT Tivat 1995). bm is Rxh7. Other moves such as Ng5 are also good but it looks like Rxh7 is best.
