Hitman Pro is good. I dont know that Avast will pick it up, but good for main virus protection if one needs that.

 

I use malwarebytes all the time, and Hitman Pro in select cases!

I personally have had a great experiences with Hitman Pro, as most of my current PCs are second hand, and were infested with viruses.
