Seeing how Steam likes to automatically update your games, sometimes even if

Set your Steam account to offline, and check for news on patches every couple of weeks, manually.

For me, in Skyrim the offline mode seems to work. In Shogun 2, it did not, and messed up the whole installation time and again. Blocking it via firewall when the steam-option failed to function, also did not work.

Steam will not get any love from me, never, even if in Skyrim it so far works. The moment they release a steam-free Skyrim is when I would buy it, immediately.
