I just stumbled on this forum after spendig the night researching an infection of rlvknlg.exe that I got while installing some audio conversion software. I was running Norton at the time, with no firewall.
I tried to scan with Norton to no avail. I can't understand how the AV doesn't see this program as a threat- time to uninstall!
I did install AVG and updated the virus definitions, then started in safe mode. This allowed me to quarantine the files in question and allowed me to delete the offenders manually. When I restarted, I ran hijackthis again to still find this program still lurking.
My next step was to install Easy Cleaner. I used this to clear the registry keys and to remove this program from the startup list.
A reboot and I think I did it right! I ran hijackthis once more and all looks well. I wanted to post it here just in case I'm missing something:
