(New) Testing Anti Virus Suites

[scarface]

Is this like EEK where you can run a scan on demand instead of having the program running all the time. There are all kinds of false positives when you run it constantly.

Actually you can do both. The on-access scan can be disabled once the antivirus has started. By default it's automatically on after each restart, but this can be disabled too (you have to uncheck "Enable on-access scan on system startup)".  If you don't want it to run continuously, then it's not really useful to install it though.

I got a file named vse.exe - hope that's it. Let me check it out on VirtualBox.

It is a switch-less installer. The original installer was modified: only the 64bit version is available (for windows 7/10/11 x64)

The is just a vse.exe file. Does it have to be installed? Can it be configured to work only when you want it to and not always? One problem I keep having with these anti-malware programs is that their detections are close to 100% false positives. Any app to create a serial number or patch a file is immediately labeled as malware and quarantined.

Well, it seems you are a bit nonplussed by this weird file. It has to be installed indeed. The installer is completely silent once double click on the file.
For the configuration, I already replied here: https://www.nomaher.com/forum/index.php?topic=1718.msg39173#msg39173
It's true that there are a few false positives.

Its endpoint security for enterprise. There's something called Trellix Stinger for on-demand scanning.
