wscript.exe being constantly attacked/blocked

Morgorth

Hi,

Bitdefender is constantly blocking threats on wscript.exe as below.

It does this about every 10 minutes but never really fixes it.

Am I infected or is it a bit def issue ?

I tried deleting the file but it comes back

Here's the detail:

Command line parameters: "C:\Windows\System32\wscript.exe" "C:\Users\Morgorth\AppData\Local\Temp\xILpQyWZSadYJkdNp.js"Detection ID: ML:SuspiciousBehavior.B75E43AB21B81015

thanks !
