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.

StrataBeauty is a questionable ad-supported extension that should theoretically provide you with precious health and beauty advice. However, showing tips on these subjects is not all this application does. StrataBeauty also may overwhelm available Web clients with commercial materials. StrataBeauty may affect Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer simultaneously. The ads that StrataBeauty may place everywhere on the sites may take different shapes. You may find an unusually large number of pop-ups, banners, interstitial ads, sponsored videos, transitional ads and hyperlinked words. The commercial materials may try to sell you products related in some way to your recent searches or surfing history. Although the coupons and special offers may seem very good sometimes, it is not a good idea to click on them. The reason for you to ignore them concerns the PC's security and the privacy of your browsing details. Some of the partner sites may not be safe shopping platforms. You may find yourself on pages that contain threatening software or may mislead the visitors to share information. Unfortunately, you may still face various problems even if you try to avoid the sponsored links. First, they may be exceptionally annoying by seizing a large part of your screen. Second, the multimedia ads like videos and animations may be the reason your browsers start running too sluggishly. StrataBeauty also may alter search results. It may include too many sponsored links, some of which may not be labeled adequately. Some users cannot recall installing this adware and assume they are infected. It is highly unlikely for StrataBeauty to be installed by some malware. StrataBeauty may have entered in a software bundle. To clean your Web clients, you should run a scan with powerful security software.
