I used Nero to make a bootable CD, and also put a DOS-level F-PROT scanner with pretty up to date defs (6/3/2002) on there. I tested it out on one machine and it worked really well.

You must do this on a clean virus free system and you'll need 6 floppies. This is updated usually weekly and yes the first floppy will be a boot disc. Note that this is for Windows 95/98 but I believe it will work on Windows ME also. Check it out.
