    Maybe you won't need anything. Although you may still want an anti-virus or anti-spyware to scan files, usb drives, CDs, etc. and something to monitor for system changes like Malware Defender or WinPatrol.

    If it isn't going to be connected to the internet, you need nothing on that system as far as security. I would suggest a backup ability be in place for it, but that should be with all systems, connected to the internet or not. If you practice safe computing and have security in place on your online system, nothing outside of physical access/tampering is going to harm that offline system.

    This is a really easy question!
    Sandboxie. Force your USB drives to run sandboxed :) Maybe even cd\dvd drives if you think it's needed.

    My vote for defensewall too.
    Doesn't require much of an updates. By default all the removable devices are untrusted so you are pretty much protected.
