Its probably just scanning the false positives. No worries unless your computer starts to slow down a bit or you just know somethings different in the way your computer is working.

Depending on where you get your tools, they could easily be true positives. Just keep that in mind. If you are truly worried about it, run them on a separate machine, virtual machine, or both. Also, in the interest of saving you money - just stick with malwarebytes and do a scan if you get into something sketchy. As long as you're careful while surfing you shouldn't get anything.

edit:
Additionally, you should always keep things that are important to you backed up, antivirus or not. If you can afford to have a backup of the entire image of your hard drive then you'll save yourself a lot of time in the event that you do get a nasty virus (something like that would most likely get by your antivirus anyway)
