Yes if an item is selected it will continue to "update" to the version on the update server.
If you modify the presets, custom notes, or any file for that matter you should select the item in order to download it then deselect the feature so it won't be updated/overwritten.
You may then modify those items without fear or your changes being lost.
The only other solution would be to add exceptions to individual files so they are only downloaded on the initial load. This may be possible but quite honestly would add yet another complexity to the ThorUI that i'm finding less time for recently.
I'll check with Robert and see if it's possible.

Another problem... (sorry to be a pain)
I thought i'd copy over my custon video presets that i had setup under your last ThorUI version, and i noticed the updater is downloading new versions of 'eq2ui_custompreset1.xml (2+3)' (custom video preset files). I tried to use the eq2ui_custompreset.exe program to reset them, with no luck unfortunately, and the eq2ui_custompreset.cfg and readme.txt have the same contents so i couldn't see if i was doing somthing wrong by checking the readme file - i had no prob with your last version, so i'm not sure what has happened here.
Just a thought, if the updater is matching the custom video preset files with a date time stamp with the ones on your server, then everytime somebody resaves new settings using the eq2ui_custompreset.exe program, these will be overwritten by the AU because the timestamp will have changed.
Also to note, when the AU finishes, and i manually copy my custom video preset files in the thorui folder before i start eq2, then start eq2, it all seems to work ok - could an option be to not check the custom preset files with the ones on your server?
sorry if i appear to be complaining, just tryin to help make this the best UI mod  i know just about all my guild use it, so... thumbs up !! 
Cheers
