Just tried Microsoft Safety Scanner and I'm impressed, runs on 32 & 64-bit OS and its configurable also its standalone (Note: only lasts 10 days, then you need to download it again as to update of its anti-malware definitions. I think its great as a second opinion ... it is not a replacement for your installed Anti Virus / Anti Malware application.
