Oh, personally I use MalwareByte's Anti-Malware with Avast! Antivirus. Avast is always on, MalwareByte's is only active if I want to make a scan. I've had plenty of times where Malware will search and says it finds "nothing" but mid-scan Avast! gets the problem file. Try also disabling IE altogether.
