> Thx for your answer but what is ICS ?

ICS is an acronym for Internet Chess Server. There are several kinds
of those, from free access (like e.g. FICS, http://www.freechess.org) 
to commercial, member based ones like WCN.

The best thing is if you want to play human to human, you don't 
even really need a chess engine :-), just the interface (for FICS, 
typically WinBoard, http://www.tim-mann.org/xboard.html).
