Does anything untoward happen if you run CCleaner whilst connected to t'internet?

Not that I have noticed. Maybe it cleans the internet at the same time.

One thing it does do is tell you there’s a new version available

It shouldn't make any difference - certainly doesn't on my system.

However it only advises you if a new version is available IF that is the case...:-))

I've recently switched to Auslogics BoostSpeed 5 SE in place of CCleaner - free of charge from Major Geeks and very effective without causing unnecessary problems:

I may well be wrong, but I think that certain items will not be 'CCleaned' if you run the programme while connected to the internet.

The vast majority of CCleaner users run the utility whilst they are connected to the Internet...:-)

Are you thinking of it being run whilst some programs or applications are in use?

Nail on head, Stuartli. I'm another less than perfect specimen. :-(
