Antivirus scan on new network machine.

When someone brings in their personal machine for repair, I'd like to
connect it to our network for internet access. It will need Windows
updates, for example.

I can do a remote scan on that machine right away, but am I too late?
Our Norton Antivirus Corporate Edition does real-time file scanning,
but I'm still paranoid.

I can install the AV software on the machine, but then it needs
internet access to get the latest definitions.

Any recommendations?
Thanks.

Jim
