Although I'm not sure, I believe Clam AV, an open source antivirus, will
scan PCs remotely over a local network. There may also be a portable
version of it (that is to say, one that will run without installing on
the target machines, straight off a USB disk). The Windows version is
called ClamWin, I think.
