None.

For a chess playing program I suggest winboard with gnuchess
http://www.tim-mann.org/xboard.html

But for playing vs. humans I suggest
http://www.freechess.org

(BTW, avoid Yahoo chess.)

You don't need any software. Chess has been around longer than computers. If you want software then you should try ChessMaster.
