Lol, you call this evidence???
Once I saw Rybka 3 playing 15 consecutive moves of Hiaracs. Well, it must be then "for sure" Rybka 3 has some Hiaracs code in it. :lol:

The person quoted in that link also made this statement:
Generally speaking, programmers will place encrypted or unencrypted information in the files or even in the executable to identify the particular original source in case there is a leak. I recall that Vas did this with Rybka 3, too. This was obviously done here, and it was by this that Felix @ Co. identified [name] as the leak with 100% certainty.

But of course, what is 100% certain about the above statement is bullshit. I bought Rybka 4 from chessok which comes with 10 binaries. The leaked package has 4 binaries. If you do a checksum (md5sum) to compare the 4 binaries, they match. As an engineer, you and I know that shifting a single bit (01 to 10) changes integrity of the data.

Code: Select all

cd5a29e2d86e4360f987e8473425f420 *Deep Rybka 4 SSE42 w32.exe
4b12d5cd1a328c3d1e01d8630f3d9381 *Deep Rybka 4 SSE42 x64.exe
7aa5c8f355175411525a5a78fd766143 *Deep Rybka 4 w32.exe
0d347db5d5bfd1ab3825e61b576628e1 *Deep Rybka 4 x64.exe
People say things just to say things. By the way, I think Rybka/Fruit case is more interesting.

There was evidence that Ippolit did,
Where was that evidence ? Are you writing so because you are the moderator on Rybkaforum or have you seen it ?

There are not bugs free programms. There are programms with undiscovered bugs.
