Skype - disabling update

Setting auto update to Off in Skype settings doesn't work! However, I have found something that does:

I have done only #3 and #4 from the list below and so far it works for me (win 10; Skype 6.16).

1. Disable Skype updates within the application.
2. If the Skype updater service still runs, disable it in services (services.msc)
3. Block download.skype.com with your hardware/software firewall or block it in your hosts file (no firewall needed).
Ex. Browse to: C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc , edit the hosts file with admin/system rights and add the entry:
127.0.0.1 download.skype.com
Be aware you will no longer be able to download any newer releases from Skype for another OS unless the entry is temporarily removed.
4. Delete any already downloaded newer versions of Skype from your temp folder.
Ex. Browse to %temp% and delete anything Skype related. Normally it's just SkypeSetup.exe.
