DNS Query every 5 minutes

I am running a Linux Teamspeak-Server in our LAN at home. As we have no Flatrate I can't afford to have an permanent Connection to the Internet.
But the Teamspeak 2.0 Server querys every 5 minutes our DNS - Server for a global teamspeak server. I have set my Server to "Clanserver" and he isn't listed at the Master Server List. How can I make my Server to stay offline? Or how can I forbid this DNS-Query-Messages?

block 'em with firewall?

Did you remove the PostURL line in the INI file? It will attempt to post information to the central TS site about every 5 minutes unless you remove that.

I tried to remove this Line, but every time I start the server, this line is added again!
So I changed the content to "localhost". I hope that this will work.

If not, I'll post again...

Let us know if it does work. Thanks!

It seems to work...

I changed the PostURL to "localhost":

PostURL=localhost

I watched the traffic for half an hour and there were no DNS-Querys for teamspeak.org, he didn't connected to the Internet. And this line remains unchanged if the program is started again.
