I have an old desktop sitting in a back room, running Windows 7 32 bit, no internet connection over there. It has AVG free, which used to allow installation of definition and program updates offline. No more.
The computer got infected yesterday from a kid's flash drive, I cleaned it up with Kaspersky Rescue Disk.
But the real question is: what kind of AV can I use for a PC without internet connection? I need to be able to install it and update it offline. It's just too much of a schlep to drag the old clunker to the router and hook it up with monitor and keyboard and mouse every time I want to update the definitions.
Or maybe I should just install a USB protection? What do you say?
