When I turned on my pc today avast started giving me messages that a threat was detected. I read on other topics that people got it from infected USB drives but i have not attached any usb drives and did not have this issue last night. The moment this message started was when i clicked on my homegroup under computer. I am not sure exactly what i need to run but i ran and attached logs from Mbam, aswMBR and Frst64.
The first tool shall target this script worm and preform removal from hosts system. The second tool shall target the malware from USB devices as this is worm that like to spread using USB memory devices.

It seems fine so far, message for detection hasn’t been coming up since running all that. Curious how i got it in the first place, did it come from a computer on my homegroup?
Edit: do i need to keep mc shield on my pc for now or was it only for the test?
