If you are very concerned about malware on your system and already have a couple of programs to scan for such programs, another anti-spyware package you might want to try is Malwarebytes.
From their description:
Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware can detect and remove malware that even the most well known anti-virus and anti-malware applications fail to detect. Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware monitors every process and stops malicious processes before they even start. The Realtime Protection Module [available in the pro version] uses our advanced heuristic scanning technology which monitors your system to keep it safe and secure.
I recently used this application to remove a rather nasty piece of spyware from a relative’s machine and it worked great. I have found, typically, that certain anti-spyware programs are better than others for particular infections so this may be one you want to consider in the future.
