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.

Strong possibility I use spybot but not tea timer I just scan weekly and let CCleaner have a go at the system too just be sure to take the time to pick out the cookies you want to keep or CCleaner will trash all cookies which can be a pain as all your usual sites ask you to login.
