Threat secured
We've blocked powershell.exe because it was infected with IDP.HELU.PSE33 - Command line detection

Hi Lionel10,
You find some answers here:

Avast scan should have an exclusion list for particular OS files, which scanning would raise (could lead to) FP issues.
This old AVG FP-issue had been whitelisted before:

So why it had to pop-up again, is beyond me. Good of you to report this.

Finally we should wait for a verdict from avast's team, to see whether this is a genuine detection or not.
and to hear what triggered the actions of the behavioral shield in this case.
