Shane's Chess Information Database is a powerful Chess Toolkit, with which one can create huge chess databases, run engine analysis, or play casual games against the computer or online with the Free Internet Chess Server. It was originally written by Shane Hudson , and has received strong contribution from Pascal Georges and others.

Scid vs. PC is a usability and bug-fix fork of Scid with some new features. The project is authored by Stevenaaus, and has been extensively tested. For more screenshots, visit the Gallery.
I've uploaded v4.9 here:

scid_vs_pc-4.9-i486.sfs (16.04Mbytes)

After sfs_loading, run via Menu>Fun>Scid

N.B. It also contains required tcl/tk environment, and snack library for sound support.
