If all yoru doing is running some tests just use windows firewall.If you suspect a virus/trogen then id advise no net connection untill all scans are done and machine is clean before allowing on the net as outbound traffic could be abused.If your testing the machine just plug it into your router (if it has a nic of course) after said scans are run.
What is wrong with the pc btw
