My likely guess is tea timer. As much as I love spybot, I too have had issues in the past on my own plus client machines as it seems to want to just scan every little thing your system is attempting to do in case it's malicious.
So, before even bothering with extra scanning (which I do highly recommend MalwareBytes), turn off the tea timer in Spybot (tools>Advanced Mode>Resident>uncheck tea timer), reboot and see if the system seems more response.
Part of the issue too is that Avast will be scanning your system files as they are accessed as well as temp directories, too. Sometimes it's a 'too many cooks in the kitchen' sort of scenario. It's good to be secure but the programs tend to want to fight.
