Subject: GetClub *does* install Active X, says my humble computer
Once again, I attempted to play a game at the Web site
GetClub.com, and once again, my computer rejected an
attempt to install an "Active X" control, for security reasons.

Having reinstalled Windows XP recently, I notice that a
few things are now different even though I always had
enabled automatic Windows updates. It looks like I have
service pack 3, and among the small annoyances are
things like being unable to edit text I type here in rgc due
to my machine typing over (instead of inserting my
changes to) text. Magically, mysteriously, this very
annoying glitch has now disappeared for now, all by
itself.

But the main difference I see from my old setup is
the numerous security "features", just one of which is
automatic blocking of GetClub's attempts to install a
"dangerous" Active X control. Sanny claims his site
does not do this, but my machine never lies (compare
and contrast)... .

My guess is that the site uses an Active X control to
launch or install the Java applet, or perhaps for the
purpose of opening pop-up windows during play-- an
effective measure designed to punish good moves,
but ineffective again me for the obvious reason that
I rarely make them.

In any case, I have not had any problems since my
reinstall with other Web sites, only with GetClub; so
then, what is the obvious conclusion here?

I think this is the biggest reasion. As otherwise GetClub will be
forced to play moves after Max time has arrived. Only when the net
connection breaks the Applet will stop responding.

No, GetClub Software is tested well on 100s of computer. Peter
finished 6 games with Master Level without any problem. He has best
computers and a fast Internet Connection.

There are many players who are facing no problem.

Help Bot used to play earlier without much problems. I think the new
System is having bad internet Connection.

Chess is a resource hungry program and needs as much resources as
possible.

Incase his computer is decent I recommend to Check his Net
Connection.

As the move where his program stuck, when I played on my Computer It
made its move in just 90 sec. I think he should restart the game and
See if the problem is solved.

I am just thinking what may be the reasion Peter has a dual core and a
Quad core (Rich guy) So he do not have problem with even the Master
Level. He has played 5 Games with Master Level without any problem.

True, Remember earlier the Java was not working then you downloaded
the recent version.

To correct the problem we need to guess the possible reasion else how
to find the real cause of problem.

Incase your Computer is fast. Then Internet Connection may be the
reasion. Incase the connection breaks the program will never make the
move.

I have internet connection problem and sometimes then the program do
not play and Alerts me "Connection disconnected"

Please see your Internet Connection do not break.

What's the story with this score? A couple
of moves ago, the GC program recognized
that I was nearly two pawns up, but now
that I am close to Queening a pawn, it has
me only a half-pawn ahead? That's odd.

Interesting. When I mentioned the limited

Oh, so it's my computer now. All those other

flukes, I suppose. Even the guy who told you

site for bugs. Look, unless your program has
become far more "demanding" lately, it is not

I have started your Program You Played (White) P-h5 and Black (Normal
Level) played Bxc3 in 90 seconds on my computer.

Restart your computer and complete the game. So there is no problem on
my computer.

Normal Level played Bxc3 in 90 seconds.

Start the game and make your move. As now it is your move. Whenever
such problem comes Restart your Computer.

If you have the wrowser open, Restart and you will see It played Bxc3.

Giving a score of (-0.53) a loss of Half point to GetClub.

What is the configuration of your System? I think it is some old
computer. As Peter finished 5 games with Master Level last week
without even a single error.

Check for spyware or some adware program that is hacking your
Computer.

I think your Computer has some spyware program which is slowing your
computer.

Or Clear the Temp Folder So that It plays fast.

It looks like some error somewhere. Do not play the game for 2-3 hours

Hmm... after following these instructions
six thousand times to no avail, I have to ask
again: is not ever moving in a lost position
the ultimate "improvement" in GetClub's
arsenal?

A century or so ago, folks like Paul Morphy
would sometimes encounter opponents
who, um, could not be beaten, in the sense
that they simply refused to finish games in
which they were losing. The supposed
solution to this problem was the introduction
of clock play, where the offender would
forfeit a game if he did not move in a
reasonable amount of time.

Of course, at GetClub the Web site has
complete control of such things as, say,
the forfeiting of games. No surprise then
that the GC program is never forfeited, no
matter what the offense-- even blatant
cheating (or what would be considered as
such, were the same behavior to occur in
human versus human play).

Not long ago, Sanny asked me if I thought
his program was playing better now than
in the past. My answer is, well, it is in the
sense that now, it simply cannot be
beaten; it cannot be beaten because it will
not move. Even Rybka can be beaten--
I know because after losing to her in QN
odds games, I tried removing her Queen;
true, it was a long, hard struggle, but it's
the result that counts. Thus, Sanny has
somehow managed to better the Rybka
team, in spite of everything.

Hey, if Apple ever figures out that us po'

machine, I will be among the first to switch.

Thus far, I have always considered price when
choosing between the hated Microsoft OS and
its alleged competition, and it appears that I am

I have a Gateway computer, and not a really
cool one from Alienware with blue neon lights
and a ten-terrabyte harddrive.

There is one Max time Setting for each level If it keeps thinking
beyond that time that means some error has occured. Just Close the
window and restart the game and you can finish from where you left.

The Max time for each level is as follows.

Beginner: 80 sec.
Easy: 320 sec or 5 min.
Normal: 1280 sec or 21 min.
Master: 5120 sec or 85 min.

So if the Max Time has occured It will immidietly play the move. If It
does not makes move after Max time that means there is some error. In
that case just close the game and restart.

I'm having trouble imagining any improvement

to win by making two moves to my one? Or
is there some way to make my pawns
disappear from the board? Whatever this

The wrong version of JVM was an activex So your computer gave ActiveX
error.

So there was nothing wrong in GetClub but it was only because you had
older version of JVM that is now obslete.

After you started the game GetClub game was further improved today. So
this game you have better chance to win. But later you will face even

After encountering the exact same error message
as before, I went to the Web site java.com and it
scanned my computer, saying I had a "wrong
version" of java installed (5.2). I downloaded the
version it recommended and installed it, then
rebooted my computer and when I tried to play at
GetClub, it then allowed me to start a game.

This "wrong version" of java had been installed
automatically, but by which program I do not
know. I now have almost nothing installed but
that which came with my computer, from the
factory. (If I had to guess, I suspect AVG anti-
virus, free edition was the culprit.)


> How long is the Normal Level playing. Is it playing better than

It moved quickly at times, but more slowly on
other moves-- especially the first move out of
book. Now we are in the middlegame and I
have a decisive advantage in position along
with an extra pawn, but the program seems
hell-bent on never moving (and thereby
avoiding its fate, which is to lose to my far
superior play). Even GetClub recognizes
that I am 1.87 pawns ahead, as it sits there,
contemplating death.

Unlike before, I am now using Microsoft
Explorer as my browser. The browser
itself generated these warnings regarding
Active X; they are not just figments of my
imagination. Maybe Sanny is right; maybe
he is the real programming expert and the
folks at Microsoft don't have a clue as to
the difference between Active X and Java.
Maybe we should all buy Sanny's OS,
and chuck this expensive MS junk in the
garbage?

So now, you are able to play at GetClub. What was wrong earlier that

Was it due to Javascript popup? or due to JVM not installed?

Perhaps it's because this is the last human-like
chess engine; or perhaps it is because Rybka
thumps me; or maybe I do it all for the money
and fame. Or maybe I just can't help bot try to
give advice when someone is so desperately in
need of aid.

In my current game, the Normal level has
apparently decided the best way to avoid further
losses is to never move. But I find it interesting
that even so, the jumbled mess of instructions
did avoid "castling into it", which puts it one up
on most human chess players.

We are playing what I believe is called a
Saemish King's Indian and I was set to launch
a straightforward Kingside assault, but instead
the GetClub program has deliberately left its
King in the center /as if/ it somehow under-
stood the fate that awaits a cornered King
whose distant armies are helpless to rescue
their monarch. I understand this is nought
but an illusion, but it is more satisfying than a
"normal" book monkey battle between
clueless humans, who play the openings by
rote until one of them runs out, and inevitably
blunders.

Hmm... I did not even know I had an "Ins" key,

key, which I use quite often, is where it hides.
Mystery solved. Thanks. I sometimes type in
