Delete that KPP cr*p. Amazon is the one that has issues, it is not your fault. Delete the files.
To confirm if OTA renamer did its job use Terminal Emulator within KOReader and execute this command: Code:
ls /usr/bin | grep -i ota |

You would first need to revert changes you already made (by using the "restore" button from existing KUAL extension).
I don't care about logging so I never tested that other extension. |

BTW do you use hosts file to block updates. I read the following URL : firs-ta-g7g.amazon.com can be further used to block updates but that was a posted 2 years ago so cant tell if there are more URLs. |

You can also deny the Kindle access to WiFi through your modem firewall settings, though, if that works. |

On my router (Asus) I go into "Wireless" settings and there is a tab labelled "Wireless MAC Filter." You can reject connections based on MAC address. Works fine on my Kindles.
