This will update the database on the device to dismiss the selected tiles from the home screen. The database trigger attempts to prevent them from coming back. It isn't perfect. Tiles get added to the home screen in a couple of ways. Sometimes tiles you want hidden get displayed, but the next time something is added, they usually disappear.

The utilities plugin does a lot more than this. It is discussed here.
Thanks! I already have the plugin installed but I wasn't aware that it did this...
