What is the version number? Their site is down temporarily. I thought the last version (4.1.1) I got was supposed to be Leopard compatible. If I remember correctly, its major 'fix' was to correct its tendency to freeze when running a scheduled activity. Unfortunately, it didn't make any difference on my Mac... I think Cocktail became compatible back in December, '07 with 4.0.1.

OTOH, maybe your comments are related to the "news" coming so late at MacsmumNews?

It's 4.1.2 - and yes, you're right - it is an UPDATE to the Leopard edition. Sorry - thought that it was the first release of a Leopard compatible edition. I don't use it (just use Onyx once in a blue moon) so wasn't as up on it as I should have been.

OK! Mark this thread! One of our moderators/admins/forum Moms has finally made an error! Could be that rarified air on the other side of those great lakes...

The bookmark I had for Cocktail is still giving me "This site has been temporarily disabled. If you are the owner of the site, please contact customer care." It may be a replaced url. <http://www.macosxcocktail.com/index.html>
OK, this is the current, working url: <http://www.maintain.se/cocktail/index.php>

I also remembered that the stall in emptying the Caches was fixed for 10.5.3, I still haven't updated to .3. My son says Steve is very serious about QC, which was supposedly one of the pillars at NeXT, so I should not be afraid to make those System and app updates. Easy for him to say!
