Irongeek has a great article for preparing a bootable CD that will let you scan for malware and viruses safely: http://www.irongeek.com/i.php?page [...] ertutorial

The question is, are there a better set of tools, aside from Bart PE and Ad-Aware or HijackThis? Was thinking a great addition would be Avast or AVG Free.

Stinger is a pretty good stand alone vius scanner that could be included.
I have used it and it works well.

I use AVG but it tends to miss alot of adware/virsus ect now and again, so I also use SpyZooka and this seems to stop everything from getting in.

Everyone needs this in their arsenal its been so valuable to me and saved many many machines, this is also a new version 3.5 so if you already have an older version built, you should build yourself a new one.
