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.

VeriBrowse is a potentially unwanted program created by SqueakyChocolate. During setup, VeriBrowse may register itself to run on boot through a Windows Schedule Task in order to automatically start-up (this is usually done to evade any UAC prompts). Upon installation, VeriBrowse may add a Windows Service which is created to run constantly in the background. Manually stopping the service has been seen to make VeriBrowse stop working properly. VeriBrowse may add a background controller service that is set to automatically start. Delaying the start of this service is possible through the service manager. A scheduled task is added to Windows Task Scheduler in order to run VeriBrowse at various scheduled times (the schedule may vary depending on the version). VeriBrowse may show unwanted ads and messages on the PC. VeriBrowse may be created to generate advertising revenue from ad clicks.
