About ReleventKnowledge
-
RelevantKnowledge is an online marketing research service that conducts various surveys on several Internet topics of interest. From these surveys, companies may better determine how to effectively package and present website information.
How it Works
-
RelevantKnowledge conducts surveys by installing spyware software on the computers of Internet users. It then spies on the online activity without the users' knowledge. It tracks the web pages that people visit and what they do at those sites. This data is then aggregated and uploaded to the RelevantKnowledge servers and sold to companies.

Removal
-
Although the surveys are useful to companies who subscribe to the data, the RelevantKnowledge software/spyware can be a nuisance to users. RelevantKnowledge may be removed by using established anti-spyware programs, according to SpywareRemove.com.

I have seen people complaining about it but honestly speaking it's not a virus. The software is used to measure online activity. I also thought it to be a virus initially but then found their website relevantknowledge.com. I did not have any problem in uninstalling it.
