LG2000 with TB access!

For my surprise I noticed, that LG2000 was using TBs, when running under Fritz6
with winboard converter! Fritz interface itself checks tablebases in current
board position (of course TB access in search is disabled). So is Fritz6
better than real Winboard!?

No, the fact that Little Goliath's programer doesn't offer tablebase use with Winboard is an issue with LilGol, not with Winboard. Comet, Crafty, TCB, Gromit, AnMon, Bringer, Inmichess are all Winboard engines that _do_ use tablebases, Little Goliath however has deprived us Winboard users of tablebase use.
I don't consider this a very big loss, I seldom use LilGol because of it's aggressive tactics.
