    go to malwarebytes website, download FREE version - preferably to desktop. When complete, insert memory stick, open folder and drag the file you saved onto pendrive. disconnect endrive. Complete.

    On recipient computer, insert pendrive, open, click on malawarebytes and follow install instructions. Done !

    If you are downloading Malwarebytes onto a memory stick then you might as well try Superantispyware Portable as well.
