I'm not sure of what version it was. Sorry, it's not bear share that won't go away it's something called Bear Flix? It has the bear share icon beside it though and when i go to add or remove programs and tell it to remove it, it says could not open install.log file. Whatever that means, that isn't really the reason I dislike Bear Share though. I just find Limewire easier and faster to use. I've been using Limewire for, jeez, around 3 years now and I haven't really found anything wrong with it.
