Smoke and mirrors

I installed Microsoft AntiSpyware (MAS) a few hours ago.
Programs runs fine, although I cannot permanently turn
off the Scheduled Scans option. I have repeated
unchecked "Schedule Scan Daily" and checked "Disable
schedule." Yet every time I turn on MAS, the Spyware
Scan Schedule is reset to 2AM every day. Is this a bug
with the program, or am I doing something wrong?

I meant to write..."Program runs fine" meaning Microsoft
Anti-Spyware.
 
This seems out of the ordinary, as i downloaded MAS
yesterday evening and set my scheduled scan for 18:00.
Rebooted a couple of times before then and this evening
checking my desktop, voila, it was in the middle of the scan.
 
Never mind. I was just able to turn off Scheduled
Scans. It's too awkward to explain in writing; you just
need to click the right buttons and check marks. But it
can be done.
