Threat Metric
The following fields listed on the Threat Meter containing a specific value, are explained in detail below:
Threat Level: The threat level scale goes from 1 to 10 where 10 is the highest level of severity and 1 is the lowest level of severity. Each specific level is relative to the threat's consistent assessed behaviors collected from SpyHunter's risk assessment model.
Detection Count: The collective number of confirmed and suspected cases of a particular malware threat. The detection count is calculated from infected PCs retrieved from diagnostic and scan log reports generated by SpyHunter.
Volume Count: Similar to the detection count, the Volume Count is specifically based on the number of confirmed and suspected threats infecting systems on a daily basis. High volume counts usually represent a popular threat but may or may not have infected a large number of systems. High detection count threats could lay dormant and have a low volume count. Criteria for Volume Count is relative to a daily detection count.
Trend Path: The Trend Path, utilizing an up arrow, down arrow or equal symbol, represents the level of recent movement of a particular threat. Up arrows represent an increase, down arrows represent a decline and the equal symbol represent no change to a threat's recent movement.
% Impact (Last 7 Days): This demonstrates a 7-day period change in the frequency of a malware threat infecting PCs. The percentage impact correlates directly to the current Trend Path to determine a rise or decline in the percentage.

CrossBrowse may seem like something that you actually respect, but it should be treated the complete opposite because it is a potentially unwanted program. The CrossBrowse program is known to load when installing random freeware programs where it may then act as a web browser add-on or browser extension. While running in the background CrossBrowse, is prone to loading random advertisements that attempt to offer random online sale discounts or coupon deals for shopping on the internet. Use of those various offers may cause redirects to load up other sites that may have questionable content and misleading links. It may be necessary to treat potentially unwanted programs like CrossBrowse much like malware so you may take the necessary precautions to remove it from your system. The mischievous actions of CrossBrowse may end up landing your web browser on a site that has malicious links or one that has questionable content.
