Maybe I'm not being clear.
OnAcceptActivate should be -exactly- one line.

bool AntiVirusPage::OnAcceptActivate() {
  return KnownAVspresent;
}

OnAcceptActivate is not intended to be, and never will be a message handler.

No, as there is a fundamental difference between the two:
  deciding to be 'unavilable' for activation changes the user interface
- the driver needs to move onto the next dialog.
  skipping drawing does not.
