Positive Grid's Bias - Does it work offline for you.

I have recently purchased the desktop version of Positive Grid’s Bias. I trialled the demo and really liked it.However, my pleasure in Bias only lasted until I authorised it after purchase. I discovered that it would only work when the computer was online. As I only ever go online to register and authorise software I was in a bit of a quandary. Positive Grid are addressing the issue, but a month has gone by. I was wondering if anyone else had had a similar problem?
Thanks.

I forgot to mention that Bias was crashing Cubase.

I just grabbed the Standard version of FX, black friday sale and all…

This is what it says in the FAQ

Internet connection is required to activate license and access Tone Cloud, BIAS doesn’t support offline activation at this moment. I> t can run under offline mode after activation > and disable Tone Cloud.

I am going to test this out tonight.
