Rybka 3 isn't giving me those sort of plus scores for Qa4. Maybe my PC is just too slow :(

Don't be sure it was really a winning line, see my other comment about it. I would not always trust a score after 57 plies in such an endgame if there is so much pruning involved ...

Unfortunately I was dead wrong initially so Qa4 seems to be the winning move that Anand missed indeed.

I should not argue with a Stockfish ...
