Thank you for you help here, and correcting me. (It is appreciated) I did it all for a 3rd time. The U.SaveNow Adware is coming from BS/Lite I disconnected from the Internet then manually went to the registry and made sure it wasn't there. I then installed BS/Lite with the installer that was saved to my hard drive still disconnected from the Internet.

After installing and opening BS/Lite still disconnected. I did another spyware scan MSAS reported U.SaveNow Adware I then manually went into the registry and it was there. But it can easily be removed and BS/Lite works without it. U.SaveNow brings up pop-ups as you browse the Internet. It is quite annoying but it is not spyware and it is easily removed.

The bundled spyware MSAS reports is no existent apparently it is associating the name of BearShare to bundled spyware rather than checking for the spyware itself. Rather disappointing I did have faith in MSAS up until this point. While I still think it is a decent tool I see they are starting to take shortcuts in the definitions department and will no longer rely on it's results without a second opinion or third.

Boy I hate being wrong but (BEARSHARE LITE HAS NO SPYWARE)
