Some many folks will have a hard time believing what I posted — just publishing a couple of hostnames here, to which CCleaner has been calling home for over a decade:— Quote license.piriform.com www.ccleaner.com ps:— It's not easy for your usual tools to detect the above 2 entries. pps:— There are many more entries — they fill-up one full page (for me.)

kevpc Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 hi all. forgive me being perhaps a bit on the dumb side but i am still in a muddle over ccleaner. is this the version to use or not? is a portable version or installed version best? if this latest version is still doing things that are not liked, for instance, phoning home etc, which version is best? at present, i am using 'old' version 5.43.6522 that Master Knowledge posted here (many tnx for that. such a shame you're unable to do more). i just dont know whether to update or not. anyone care to enlighten me, please? many TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalju Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Can you explain more precisely which problems and mistakes you are talking about? I have several different versions and releases (for testing), all have Internet access and all the possible features as well are turned on. The total usage of the Internet over the past month (3 different versions of CCleaner during last 30 days, ps checking update is also enabled) is much less than 5 MB. But the internet may be forbidden at all, if someone wants it. What are the bugs, what You're talking about all the time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevpc Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 if you have time and dont mind, knowledge, i would appreciate you giving us this version as an 'old' version. i know you said you could make it clean the bin properly but is there anything else you are able to make it do that it doesn't atm because of the bugs? as for what is happening to the program, it seems to me that since it was taken over by Avast, it's gone totally tits up! what is the point of taking control of a program that was doing a pretty fine job of what it was meant to do, screwing it up and then not listening to the customers when telling of the problems their 'development' have created? it seems as well that it's more important to them to remain in control of it rather than admitting they made multi-mistakes! i suppose the alternative is to use something else but i admit, i dont know what would be best as an alternative. unlike avast though, i am prepared to listen to suggestions!!

duplicate Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Avast is not going to fix, they want it this way. Fixing messes up their Data purchase intentions July 2017. You have to understand they are not the same people anymore. In the install Telemetry happens automatically. Using a Portable your able to blocks host manually by adding into hosts. Your best privacy is safer with an older version. Need logs run on 542, & 532 = last Piriform version before Avast purchase. Notice the size difference doubled. This will help show & conclude, if Avast has being pimping all along like dcs18 thinks we should see. Now its calling home in two places, need to know older versions, if they call once or hopes of none. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevpc Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 many tnx Knowledge. i appreciate your efforts and, as i have said before, much prefer the 'old look'. let's hope that the ccleaner team start to think more about the users and less about trying to spy on us, which must be the aim, given the underhanded things they are now doing. cant understand the thinking. it also makes me wonder what they are up to with the Avast a/v?
