I read that, I think what the player Zxxxxxx did was wrong, how could he know what his engine said ? Thats blatent cheating, surely the site admins could do a forum search through all the groups and the keyword "e*gine" with an n to catch them.

The comment was made in the game comment section in around move 52 to 54. That problem is below. Before attempting to solve the problem,  black has to to take into account that the queening square is a light-square while its bishop is a dsb. Black's drive to overcome it means the king should advance up to the 2nd rank while white's king should be prevented coming under it.

Nice solution ... I agree the battle is over control of the file between the Queening square and the white king, and the Queening square ... if whites king isn't available to capture on f8 and cannot move to f7 then there is also the idea of Rf8 ... its obvious that keeping whites king permanently off the g-file is difficult or impossible

One of my recent opponents was banned for cheating, here is a link to the game:-

The challenge occured during the Onischuk game, and he said on the forums that "if he doesn't cheat he will lose". And "I am betting on chessmaster". Pretty obvious. I had a look at his move choices after the game and I was confused by Ne8, I had no idea that my score was -2 when I played Nb5 (a serious error) and then -5 when I played Qh3 - because I thought I had compensation from the attack on the h-file and the knight on f4 ...

I seriously wonder why the computer doesn't like the f4 knight ... lol, anyway he got banned all his moves were top 3 and he basically admitted it before the game.
