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.

EmailDescontos is a typical adware plugin, created on the AdwareROI platform. It promises to improve your on-line shopping experience by keeping you informed of the best deals and offers at the moment. However, the displayed discounts and coupons are unlikely to save you money. The true goal of the ads is to increase the popularity of some sponsored third-party pages. They may be newly created e-commerce sites, but may also host some questionable software. You should ignore the ads for the sake of keeping your PC safe. The developers of EmailDescontos earn revenues for each page impression they create, so they make everything possible to trick you into clicking on the ads. The pop-ups, banners and interstitial ads may be in considerable amounts and may even correspond to your needs properly. The latter happens because the adware monitors your on-line activities, including the history of visited pages. The presence of EmailDescontos often impairs the performance of the browser, no matter if you prefer Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer. All in all, this adware plugin doesn't benefit the majority of clients in any way, so you should take measures to delete it.
