I have seen no mention of the wb-compatible program SJENG, written by Gian-Carlo Pascutto. It plays fairly well; the author is especially interested in chess variants but the program plays standard chess, and has an opening book. It has been available for download since 11 November. I have watched it beat Averno and Monik, and draw Knightx. See Tim Mann website for link.

Thanks, I don't know those variations but it does as you say play standard Chess too. I had never heard of Sjeng. No special tricks to make it work from what I can tell, I renamed it, here's what's in my winboard.ini:
\"Sjeng \" /fd=c:\\sjeng
pretty much that easy I think.
