I am going to assume this move is called, en passant.
Did it happen when you put your pawn 2 places forwards at once and came next to a pawn?
Computer glitch

Check this, I think this is what happened to you and it's legal ;)

No: On the contrary: it was the computer who did an en passant
and my pawn disappeared

No that is not what happened; The computer went two squares past my pawn and my pawn disappeared: Stop trying to defend a machine
Uhhh.....
I've had pieces disappear when playing the computer on this site. They are usually still there somehow because they often come back if I try to move a piece onto their square. Other than that, there is no indication they are on the board. I think it's some type of graphics or display glitch and not a problem with the chess computer itself.
It's a graphics-bug with the display. I had it yesterday when my opponents bishop while on it's way, stopped between 2 squares. Luckily I remebered where he actually was. They still are there and you can move them but you have to memorize where they were.

NO it is not a grapahics bug: it's an EN PASSSANT Bug. The en-passant exception malfunctionedd; it backfired. Don't you undestand? Instead of me taking the computer's pawn: it took mine. It didn't give me a choice whether to take or not take the en passant pawn because if it had I would have won the game.
Please post a link to the game to make it easier to understand what you are saying.

One question: where is the button that allows you to respond to a post without 'quote' s? I can't see it or find it.
As to a link to the game: First the hundreds of games I played against the computer since I played that game makes that impossible to find. Second: I'm new here and didin't know there is any record of my games and donnb't know where they are.
I didn't know that was a legal move, but explain the computer's rook taking my piece without moving onto its square
I played a wiinning move: and so help me as god is my witness: the computer played a move in which my pawn disappeared into thin air: The pawn was not taken. It simply doisappeared so the computer wouldn't lose. You think computers don't make mistakes? You think computers aren't sneaky? That bloody computer programm is either run by a human or it has been programmed to cheat.
