AICE you have to start Winboard (or make a shortcut) with the following command
line parameters:

Arena GUI for Windows
Arena is a new chess GUI that supports both the x-board and UCI protocols.
Download and install Arena from the above location and then select "Engines" and
"New engine" from the main menu. A dialog box appears that prompts you to select
the communication protocol. AICE works with both Winboard and UCI protocols. For
example, select "Winboard" and click "Ok". A new dialog box appears that prompts
you to select the engine's executable. Browse and find the aice.exe in the AICE's
installation folder and click "Open".

Fritz 8 is a commercial chess program with its own GUI (ChessBase). AICE can
run under the Frtiz 8 GUI if installed properly as a UCI engine:
From the main menu select "Engine" and "Create UCI engine". A dialog box appears.
Click the "Browse" button and locate the aice.exe in AICE's installation folder.
Click "OK".
