Anti-malware solutions for Windows

I recently spoke to a friend that was infected with a new piece of Malware which prevents installing tools such as Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, so I thought that I would help him investigate other tools that help remove Malware.

Of course, there is Malwarebytes Anti-Malware (which was not working for him in this case): http://www.malwarebytes.com

But there are other tools such as Lavasoft Ad-Aware: http://www.lavasoft.com/

Another tool which I have used often in the past is Spybot: https://www.safer-networking.org/

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware also has a tool called "Chameleon" which fools malware into thinking it is another tool instead: https://www.malwarebytes.com/chameleon/
