Microcap timed switch not making sense

[techninja80]

Why when the switch is off I am getting 1.6V?? I know I must be doing something wrong. I am a self learner, and am struggling with something really simple. I know this is an issue with using the product, because if I change the switch to a animated switch or a static one, I don't get this leakage.  I really need to understand this because I need the timed switch function Please someone explain why I am getting this odd behavour, and point me in the right direction.  Also I have faith in microcap, it has always been my fault so if your advise is to use something else, I wont do it. Thanks for any help. I labeled the test point tmns (This Makes No Sense).

The software must simulate a tiny bit of switch leakage. The 1.6V comes from that leakage current going through the LED but not visibly lighting it. A real DMM would load it enough that you wouldn't see the 1.6V...
Perhaps there's a way of setting this leakage current to zero?
Or do something like this to get rid of the ghost voltage:

Look for the on / off resistance values for the switch in the properties.

Thank you nctnico, and Kim Christensen. Both your suggestions affected the circuit in the way that I desired.  I employed both in order to get the desired results.  I will need to keep this in mind for future work. Both it dropped from 1.6V to 8.9mV Thanks a million I can move on. Finally to get rid of that horrible negative spike the almighty diode.
