I'm sure you'll find out
Trend Micro's scan is very good IMHO.
I didn't even bother to install Ad-aware and Spybot S&D on my new
system as they never picked anything up on my old system. They served
me well in the past but IMHO they gave me a false sense of security as
they didn't find any malware that Trend Micro did.
Ccleaner is not meant to detect these kind of things, and Avast is a
virusscanner, not a spyware scanner, so whatever it finds spyware-wise
is a bonus.
Anyway, please let us know if the popups are still there or not.
