If they do not have access to the internet, how would those computers be
infected with spyware?

It's not so much that they may be infected with spyware, but that windows
defender can stop some things from running etc when they're installed.
I know that in my case I have a problem with it not being able to autoupdate
through our proxy, so I'll be manually downloading until there's an option to
get past that in a future revision.
