Hi Be Secure :)

I have no idea what you mean ...

I have also "Participate in data sharing" unchecked, but no problem here with manually checking for  ( database ) updates.
What do you mean with "a datablock submission" ?

Do you mean "Sending statistics..." message showing at the last seconds of update?
If so, there is already an answer from a developer; see below.
