  Even now(year 2013) winboard 4.27(winboard_x) is so easy to use(not to configure maybe), fast and compatible(tested with Win 95,XP,Vista,Linux under Wine) that i prefer it to Arena. The lack of eco-openings and of introducing variation of an analyzed line is the only reason why i sometimes use Arena.The new verions of winboard seam slower and less customizable(no winboard.ini).

  Great chess game for the PC. It's small size and elementary design make it perfect if you're playing on my (or a) netbook.

  What is the complete chess.com URL for playing internet chess with winboard?

  Example for freechess.com is:

  freechess.org /icsport=5000 /icshelper=timeseal

  This program uses all of your CPU, so if you want to analyze a game which is for example on a web page on the Internet Explorer and you switch between windows the process will be annoyingly slow. The problem is worse if the moves are on a page that has a dynamic chessboard, which also consumes a significant amount of computer resources. In fact, you will quickly abandon the analysis because the computer will be just too slow. There should be an option to stop the engine so that you can switch between windows easily or even an option to limit CPU consumption. Selecting Pause or Edit Position does not stop the engine from running, which if it happened it would have been a good workaround. Apart from that, the GUI could have been more user-friendly, especially the starting options panel, apart from the fact that there should be default options and not an option panel every time the program starts.
