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.

Save Pages is an annoying adware that may enter your machine if you install freeware and skip details. Save Pages is a Web extension that may work just as well on Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer. In the past, the add-on could be found on the Chrome Web Store. However, because the majority of PC users provide negative feedback, Save Pages was removed. Save Pages also has no official page, so it may rely almost exclusively on the bundling method. This means that very frequently the adware may modify the browsers of the users against their will. As a typical ad-based extension, Save Pages may generate a lot of pop-ups, banners, transitional ads, and also turn some words into hyperlinks. Save Pages also may insert videos and blinking animations. You may be surprised to find out that a significant part of the commercial materials may respond to your interests accurately. It may happen because the adware may have access to some non-personally identifiable information such as your browsing history and recent searches. Although the offered products may make you curious, you should be vigilant if you want to check them. In some cases, the sponsored links may transfer you to sites that are not safe. A lot of infections happen when unsuspecting users download fake updates from unknown sites that they have visited after clicking on a compromised ad. The marketing elements may cover a substantial part of the screen. Not only this performance may irritate you. The ads also may cause your browsers to operate too slowly. In case you open a few tabs simultaneously, each containing a lot of ads, your Web client may even freeze or crash. Save Pages is not one of those extensions that you can disable with a click of the mouse. The adware may activate itself again automatically with the next launch of the browser. To remove Save Pages permanently, you should use a credible security tool.
