So I found this wonerful website, and downloaded (I think) everything I needed. When I click on yay.pl, the ms dos window pops up, i type in my username and all that, and "waiting for winboard on port 6000" comes up. So I click on winboard and an error message pops up that says "can't find slave," after that another one pops up that says "Can't create PIPE" and then a third that says "Error: first chess program (winboard232d.exe-pipe) exited unexpectedly" after that, the whole winboard thing closes. Any ideas on what is going wrong? Any help would be much appreciated.

Is your WinBoard shortcut target line correct?

Have you downloaded and copy to your Winboard folder the file
"winboard232d.exe" ?

If you have not, then you can download it here:
