i don't understand why the scanning program should make any difference. they are using the same TWAIN drivers and that controls what goes into your program. i have all of the programs and plugins you name and Grain Surgery is pretty good at removing noise, but it's on the expensive side. NeatImage is cheaper and better in some ways. Digital GEM by ASF is good at some things and not so good at others. you can read all about noise reduction at http://www.michaelalmond.com/Articles/noise.htm.
