I have been informed that the xbox communicates with microsoft even before you sign into Live (It's not currently connected to the internet). The question I have is, is there any way to prevent this by changing some settings in dashlaunch/FS3 or does something take care of that so I can use the Link feature? The reason why I'm asking is because I'd prefer not getting console banned if I ever decide to use my original nand. Thanks in advanced and I apologize if the answer is obvious.
