It appears nested guess is broken.
I'll take a look at it later. In the mean time don't use it 
If you are after really really difficulty problems, just use the full solver. The full solver doesn't make harder problems if you turn nested guess on (even when nested guess is working).
Edit:
Found the bug, an improvement I added a few months back to speed up the generation process was not quite correctly coded for nested guess logic. Resulted in an accidental highlander logic being used. It'll be fixed in the next release, although I'm not sure when that will be.

Just in case anyone wants to try it, I have uploaded my current proof of concept Silverlight version of LoopDeLoop.
http://www.themissingdocs.net/LoopDeLoop.html
Currently it just shows a 10x10 puzzle of moderately interesting but probably not very difficult nature. If you solve it it loads another one.
Ctrl-z to undo. Supports left and right clicks and drag filling.
Edit:
I updated it a bit more, ctrl-y to redo - ctrl-F to fix position, ctrl-R to revert to fix and unfix (cause I couldn't be bothered adding unfix as well just yet). I also added some options at the top of the page.
Edit again:
added ctrl-U for unfix, and made ctrl-R a more traditional revert. Also made fix/unfix operations part of the undo-tree.
And again:
New version displays progress bar while its generating a puzzle, lets you select from 4 difficulty 'levels' and has a clock timer.
Btw silverlight is supposed to work on Mac - and moonlight on linux, although I am not sure how complete their silverlight 4 compatibility is.
And again:
A few more tweaks - added a different keyboard shortcut for revert to fixed, because ctrl-R is already used in IE for reload page. A couple more difficulty levels below 'easyish' which are actually easy.
I added buttons on the right hand side for if keyboard shortcuts bother you...
