what if this computer is not connected to the internet?

Well then I guess it's not connected to the internet.

In other words you'll have to download the programs from a different machine and somehow install them onto the infected PC whether it be VIA thumb drive, external drive, CD, or other storage medium.

[Osiris]

Just like he said below, copy the programs to an external device then hook it up to the infected machine and run it
