wscript.exe

Hello , ive been having trouble with wscript.exe, AVG shows me "we moved wscript.exe to quarantine because it was infected with VBS: Downloader-ATJ (Trj)" but when i go to see details and open quarantine, it doesnt show me anything. 
Then i close, but in few minutes more, it appers again.... PLEASE HELP!

Hello Emilio,

We are able to see all of the screenshots that you posted here.
Are you using the free or trial or paid version of AVG?

Andrew,

I'd request you to contact our technical support team ( https://support.avg.com/support_contact_form?l=en ), so they can collect more information about the detection and escalate it to our senior technicians for a resolute solution.

False "wscript.exe threat secured" is a major problem for many users! Also using latest 18.2.3046 version in WINDOWS10. Please solve and send an updated version ASAP!

Hi, I am also having the popups and mine are all in wscript.exe and they say "CMD:Downloader-A[Trj] and VBS:Downloader-ATJ[Trj] and LOTA.TXT
I have reported the issue to the support team but haven't heard back yet.
How will the support team contact me? Is it via email? And has anyone found a resolution yet?

Martin, I understand how difficult this is for you.

We have already escalated this case to the senior team and waiting for a resolution.

Once a resolution is provided, it will be updated in this community post.

We appreciate your time and co-operation.

Greetings people, I created a post in how to MANUALLY take care of the virus. I did these steps and was able to get rid of it. Not a single notification of it after 18 hours of removal.
