Remember MacKeeper? It used to be synonymous with scamware, but that’s all in the past. New owner Clario has just unveiled version 5.0 of the app to try and establish a new reputation for itself.

MacKeeper 5.0 is effectively 11 tools in one, split over four categories: security, cleaning, performance, and privacy. That sounds like great value for the price, and you can give all of them a road–test for free — one free fix is provided for each, but after that you’ll need to buy a subscription.
