Then you should be smart enough to use Google.

Why didn't you say so in the first place, insead of making us all
assume things that you didn't mean? First you were talking about
scanning hardware, now you're talking about scanning registries.
What exactly is it you want?

The only parts of another computer you have access to across the
network are disk files. You don't have direct access to their
hardware.

Most anti-virus programs that can scan other computers on the LAN
will scan the registry, also. You generally have to pay for
"corporate" versions for that capability. The free or "home"
versions are generally restricted to the local machine. Seems to me,
though, that a remote scan will be highly likely to miss the more
deeply embedded malware, such as rootkits.

Here's one that I found by searching on Google. I have no experience
with it:
