Scanning a system with HIPS installed?

["Albert R. Campa" <abcampa () gmail com>]

As far as allowing visitor laptops on your network, when you scan a
laptop you would disable any HIPS/Firewall system that is installed so
as to perform a full scan.

Is there a major reason to not allow a laptop on the network if you
could not disable the HIPS(because of admin rights) and just scanned
it with HIPS running?

thx
