AutoIt has often been flagged as a trojan, virus, generic malicious file, etc. It is a false positive because AutoIt can read user input and simulate user input and access the internet among other things. It is safe.

its not been flagged as a virus.

my virus-scanner (AV Guard) says : autoit3.exe contains WORM => IMBetzam

That the first time I see a signed .exe flagged. We try to delivered only signed .exe.

Can you verify with AV Guard they have done a false alarm?

PS When you compiled an script you get a non signed .exe. It is your responsability if needed.
