Just wanted to let you guys know that the host-based block is ineffective. You'll need to block the TuneUp internet requests with your firewall.

-> it can be done even simpler -> rename 3 `.exe`-s in TU folder :

- UpdateWizard.exe

- TUAutoUpdateCheck.exe

- SilentUpdater.exe

-> change them to `.exeblk` , or `.exeold ` -> no more blocked serials ! B)

(if you prefer the firewall method -> block the 3 `.exe`-s above)
