Detection and classification as malware [edit]

Multiple antimalware products (e.g., Microsoft Online Safety Scanner,[1] Norton Power Eraser, and Norton Internet Security/Norton Antivirus,[2][3] among others[4]) detect RIKVM 38F51D56.sys as a rootkit or Trojan virus[5] and recommend its removal. However, a user post dated October 24, 2012, replying to a Norton Internet Security / Norton Antivirus community forum query dated October 13, 2012, titled "Is this a virus RIKVM_38F51D56.SYS ?", indicates: "I've finally got a reply from Cyberlink confirming that this file is indeed a genuine Cyberlink file that is part of PowerDVD 10 - see screenshot below. Also, it appears that they have informed Norton of the false positive detection of this file, so hopefully Norton can do something about it now. This should finally put this issue to rest."[6]

In contrast, a January 18, 2013 post titled "RIKVM 38F51D56.sys Virus Removal Tips, How to Remove RIKVM 38F51D56.sys", by Tee Support, at the Delete/Remove Rogue Programs and Malware Threats blog, indicates:

RIKVM 38F51D56.sys is classified as a computer infection just like trojan viruses which can connect to remote servers automatically and compromise system security. You may not notice its existence until firewall displays a warning or antivirus programs pick it up. However, it cannot be removed effectively by security tools. The virus performs harmful tasks secretly. It can allow hackers to access your computer without permission and install malicious programs. Moreover, RIKVM 38F51D56.sys virus corrupts system files or hides/deletes your personal data. It is hard to know that how and when it steals your personal information. Such infection is always considered as high-risk infection, so you should remove it from your infected machine for good.[7]
