That's a lot of people. After seeing these posts, it does seem likely that it is a false positive. Still, what application installs this? I don't run AVG, but I don't have this file (knlwrap.exe) on my system, either, so I can't test using any other AV or anti-spyware.

I had already done that search, but I did look at a link and found a post within the link in which the poster said that he had webtrends on his system and when he removed that, the knlwrap.exe file went away, as well. A keylogger associated with webtrends makes sense. However, the next post by pudelein suggests that the file could be installed with Roxio's CD creator (early version). I did not reinstall that software when I had a hard drive failure last year. I did get a new Roxio product, RecordNow 9, but that does not install knlwrap.exe, it seems.

Anyway, since there seems to be no use for the file, why not just remove it?
