messages to the On-Access Scan Messages dialog box, recording
detections in the activity log if you enabled activity logging on the
Reports tab, and counting detections in the scan statistics. If you deselect
this option, ePolicy Orchestrator does not generate alerts, but detections
will still be recorded in the activity log if you enabled activity logging on
