RE: [N-Prize:2906] Where can I find an online anti-virus that doesn't install on your PC?

HiJackThis is the defacto standard starting point for virus scanning and will run without install. From there the scans will point you to other targeted anti-virals such as SmitFraudFix, VunduFix and FxNdotN.

I've got 5 PCs that I'm trying to use to train disadvantaged young
people. The problem is they are riddled with viruses and a firewall
blocks me from updating them. The people in charge of maintaining the
PCs won't fix them or give me the admin password (Win XP) to let me
install a new or updated antivirus the centre is being shut down in a
few months.

If they were working, I could still do a lot with them, so I've been
looking for a good online virus scan - but they all try to download a
little .exe onto your PC first, and the settings on the PCs won't
allow that.

Suggestions? Solutions? Links?
