Hello Alexandre,
I have just replayed both of your games: against Averno and SOS. You are obviously a strong player, exploiting two striking weaknesses of contemporary programs -- in the first game it was the program's wrong idea about the value of development, in the second it was the blocked centre (the atrocious ...c4, after which your Bishop on c2 was ruling the diagonal leading to the successful attack). With slight changes, the games you played could be played against most of the commercial programs... with the possible exception of Hiarcs, CSTal and MCpro which are all very sensitive to tempi and king-safety.
Nice games, anyway )

Hello Djordje,
I play a lot with chess programs and I win easily with the stonewall attack (c3,d4,e3,f4).
Programs don't see the attack on the king side and a lot of programs
play the atrocious...c4? or/and ...h6? (see my games against Lg2000a, Gromit 2.20, Comet B08,Sos and CSTal 2.03!).
Happily for the human player the Stonewall attack is not the only way to beat programs!
Programs are strong but not unbeatable and I think for a long time...
Follows a nice game against CSTal 2.03:
