Is there any way to get Einstein@home to stop downloading GPU WUs?

Not really a big deal if it can't. Didn't see anything in my account prefs. I like to keep my GPU doing Folding only, so I have GPU computing disabled for Einstein. However, it keeps downloading GPU work units even though they won't get crunched. Is there a way to stop this?
 
It's deep in the preferences, and Einstein has a weird interface.

If you already have work and abort this work you dont want, E@H may still try to resend lost work units to you even with these set to no.

port, url or ip block?

Well we can assume he wants to crunch on the CPU and blocking the port, url or IP will not work.

Blocking the port will block all BOINC projects. So if he's running more than one, it'll block them all.
Blocking the URL will also block the CPU work.
Blocking the IP will also block the CPU work.

The suggestion above to tell E@H to not use Nvidia, AMD or Intel GPUs is the solution which appears it worked. Looking at his host I'm not seeing any GPU tasks in progress, but I'm not about to dig through all 166 of them.
