After 3 hours, my wallet say "out of sync" and the blocks are done :O That isn´t right or?

Thats where im at.   Block up to date. but still showing out of sync.

add me to that list Smiley

That's correct, until the blockchain frees up.  Then it will sync.  By my calculation, we'll hit the 340,000th block within the next 8 hours or so.  I have no idea what happens if the blockchain is still blocked.

I have a question for one more knowledgeable than I.  Between family and work, I don't spend a lot of time here.  I had been away for a month and just happened to catch this mandatory update. My question. Is a paper wallet immune to these updates? Can I just pack them away for a year or two and be able to import them into any future new wallet?  I wouldn't have to worry about keeping track of updates.  Thank you in advance for any information.

yes a paper wallet is not affected by any of this, as the coins reside in a pubkey/privkey, that you can import back into a wallet at any time

Thank you much. 
For anyone who is really holding for the long term, this seems like the most secure method by far.
