Threat Metric
The Threat Meter is a malware assessment that SpywareRemove.com's research team is able to
give every identifiable malware threat. Our Threat Meter includes several criteria based off of
specific malware threats to value their severity, reach and volume. The Threat Meter is able to give
you a numerical breakdown of each threat's initial Threat Level, Detection Count, Volume Count,
Trend Path and Percentage Impact. The overall ranking of each threat in the Threat Meter is a basic
breakdown of how all threats are ranked within our own extensive malware database. The scoring for
each specific malware threat can be easily compared to other emerging threats to draw a contrast in
its particular severity. The Threat Meter is a useful tool in the endeavor of seeking a solution to
remove a threat or pursue additional analytical research for all types of computer users.
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.

WHAT A BLESSED RELIEF TO BE ABLE TO GET RID OF 360
I felt so stupid that I didn't look up Antivirus 360 before downloading it. I can't believe I even fell for such a trick and paid $50 for it. I mean I have Norton 360 so I should have known it was lying to me but I'm very precautious and now I'm just extremely mad at myself for believing such a phony anti-spyware system.
I NEET THAT
HI THERE I DONT KNOW HOW ANTIVIRUS 360 GOT ON MY PC BUT I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE IT REMOVE I TRY AND IT WILL NOT LET ME PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW TO REMOVE IT RIGHT AWAY PLEASE THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
Apparently one of our children has infected my wife's computer with this 360 garbage, I have run several scans and each one find a new Trojan and eliminates it, how ever 10 times I have tried to install a spyware removal tool, only to get kicked out before I can install it, I can not even pull up the recommended Malware tool you suggest I use, what do you recommend. I am willing to go to the store and purchase a spyware or malware removal tool, but I live in the country, not sure where my best choice is to find one.

WOW GREAT INFORMATION.... thanks yaa for posting such a great and useful information....
I totally agree with Michael above. I was previously having the same trouble with not even being able to open task manager, but by following his method (which not only got rid of the virus, but did so far quicker than the method this website is suggesting would have) my laptop is running just as it was before. Thank you Michael for this information which proved hugely helpful to me! I would advise anyone to follow his lead and try this method first due to its speed and simplicity.
