"Internet connection issues since running cache cleaner"
Version: Lion Cache Cleaner 6.0.7
Pros
None, since it has wrecked my internet connection
Cons
Technical issues with my Imac since running cache cleaner
Summary
It seems to be sending my internet connection into chaos. Can't connect, then sometimes it does connect and it takes 20 seconds to load a page on a rapid cable network. Prior to running this program it took 2 seconds to load a page. HAYWIRE

Version: Lion Cache Cleaner 6.0.1
Pros
seems to have many features
Cons
I tried to use it once to optimize my internet connection and it wrecked my mac - author did fix the problem, but i'm a big gun shy to try again

just checked out the Lion version and it seems to have the exact same options as the snow leopard version so i am confused why i would need to pay $7 to "upgrade" ?

"An essential tool for the Mac support person."
Version: Lion Cache Cleaner 5.0.16
Pros
Covers a multitude of system functions with tools to manage all the most commonly encountered problems. Many things you can try "just in case they help" without needing to be a UNIX geek.
Cons
The interface is a little sparse and the manual is very brief and to the point.
Summary
I've been using this tool in a support role since the Jaguar version, and it has never let me down; i.e. it has never created a problem that didn't already exist. On the other hand, it has resolved many obscure problems, using many more routines than its name would suggest.

"5.0.16 is needed for OS X 10.6.7"
Version: Lion Cache Cleaner 5.0.15
Pros
lots of interesting settings
Cons
one of these settings screwed up my internet connection - developer did fix it - $10 is ok, I rarely use it, OnyX is far better value since it's free
Summary
if you got $10 to spare, it's ok
