GotoMeeting G2MUpdate hinders sleep mode in Mac OSX

Today I noticed that my iMac constantly wakes up even if there are no applications open. The reason in my case was GotoMeeting, which I installed a few days ago on that iMac. The default installation activates the automatic update preferences. This little checkbox creates a launch agent in your ~/Library/LaunchAgents called com.citrixonline.GoToMeeting.G2MUpdate.plist.
This agents starts each our and searches for updates (a release each hour, wow those guys might be magicians).
To get rid of it do the following

  1. Open GotoMeeting Software
  2. Select preferences within the GotoMeeting app toolbar
  3. Select updates
  4. Deselect the checkbox
