Hi,

Is there a way to detect if there's any anti-virus program running on
the computer with on-demand scan enabled?

I would need to show a warning from the application that it will
significantly slow down in this case.

I found the IOfficeAntiVirus API from MSDN, but it doesn't seem to be
related to this problem.
