I will post a working version for the italian version of MineSweeper.

If You want I can send You some different Italian versions to test You program with.
You can however get board's bitmaps from my project, too.

...

After pausing one year I improved my solver and fixed some bugs. It does now 36.4% of expert games.
You can try it out: http://www.wsdh.org/?minesweeper

Well, if Your program is The world's best MineSweeper solver,
can i claim mine to be the world's coolest ?  ;)

Hi Mathias

can you measure the odds of your solving algorithm?

No, I haven't added such a feature. :(

I downloaded the program, but when I try to let it solve a configuration it runs an instance
of minesweeper (here in Italy is called Campo fiorito (flowers instead of mines)) and then it
shows an error saying 'Could not find application winmine.exe'.
My OS is Win2k with service pack 4 if I remember well.
I will try it at home with Win XP.

P.S: I think I found and error within this board (having 10 bombs). The sum of all bomb probabilites should be 10 - but isn't:

I don't understand it for now, but I guess I will understand when I will see Your program in action.
Also did You find the html file on which I detail some techniques used to solve the game ?
Do You use some different ones ?
