Oline AV

My girlfriend has a machine with Win 2 K, 800 MHz. 512 mb ram, 20 gb
HD. She
let her NAV expire and now it's infected with at least 2 viruses and
will
not boot. I've tried several bootable anti virus disks but they do no
good.
apparently the viruses are newer than the AV programs.
I can get her computer to boot with Reatogo and run from the CD but
the AV
program in Reatogo is also outdated. I can get online with IE but if I
try to
run a program like Trend house call it won't work because it cannot
write
it's applet to the CD. does anyone know of an AV program that will run
just from
the internet without having to download anything?: Any better ideas?
Reformatting is a last choice as she does not have the OS disk or the
finances to
buy one, plus she does not want to lose her family pictures.
