Deep Blue, a IBM Supercomputer.
In February 1996 , IBM's chess computer Deep Blue defeated Kasparov in one game using normal time controls, in Deep Blue - Kasparov, 1996, Game 1 . However , Kasparov was still able to gain three wins and two draws and win the match .
Vladamir Kramnik won against him in the 2000 World Championship Match to win the title. As far as an individual loss goes, many grandmasters have beaten him. He just defeated them more frequently.
Chess Master Gary Kasparov lost the first game of a six-game match to IBM's chess computer, "Deep Blue" in 1996.

From what I remember it had the world "blue" in it.
'Deep Blue' was the first computer to beat a world chess champion. It defeated Garry Kasparov in 1997. There may well have been earlier computers that beat humans who did not play very well.

I knew it had to be one of the Polgar sisters, but had to look it up to see it was Judit.
The super-computer Deep Blue would persevere after all it defeated Kasparov even though Deep Blue had been bested by Kasparov on previous occasions .
Probably Bobby Fischer, Ruslan Pomarinov or Vladimir Kramnik. Not Kasparov, as he got beaten in a 2000 game by Kramnik.
No. This rumour originates from a 1968 episode of Mission Impossible called 'A Game of Chess.' The IMF have to steal some gold from a safe with a timer lock in a hotel where a chess tournament is being held. In order to do this they build a machine capable of beating any human at chess, that also has the effect of speeding up any clock in it's vicinity. This is entirely fictional. Both from the perspective of the time bending and the chess super computer. IBM's Deeper Blue wasn't able to consistently beat the reigning world chess champion Garry Kasparov until 1997
