So my girlfriend got a virus on her computer. It pops up and says she has severe security threats and she needs to do a malware scan and update her computer. I have tried to get Windows 8 into safe mode but I can't open the system configuration without it saying the firewall blocked a program and the shift+F8 doesn't work either. Is there a linux distro I could load to a flash drive or something and do a virus scan from that? What other suggestions might you have?

Kaspersky Rescue CD. Boot from that, not the OS.
