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.

Allow-space.com is a page designed to host a fake robot check that users are asked to complete if they want to proceed to the content they were trying to access. However, the trick is that the robot check does not work and, instead, the instructions on Allow-space.com try to get you to perform actions that would enable this website to spawn Web browser notifications. This change is not a malicious one, but it may worsen your Web browsing experience by exposing you to dozens of Web browser notifications every few minutes. Needless to say, such intrusive behavior should be dealt with immediately by revoking Allow-space.com's ability to display notifications.
Hijacking push notifications has become rather popular among online con artists in the past few months, and there are hundreds of websites that operate in a manner similar to Allow-space.com.
