You'd just need to have a chess program like ChessMaster running in one window, and live chess running in the other. You'd then just have to input your opponents moves into chessmaster and get it to suggest the best move. Wouldn't take much time at all.

Why you'd want to do that is a whole other question!

Erik, what is a ballpark figure for the % of people you find cheating?.......I have read many posts like this, saying there is "lots of cheating", curious how widespread this is.......
