Well I'm in the same boat as you because mine does the same thing! As far as I'm concerned, it does more harm than good in a real offroad situation. On pavement it *might* help in a snowy downhill condition, but I sure wouldn't bet on it. I would rather have the abililty to turn OFF the ABS than turn ON DSC.
