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.

The ArcadeTab extension offers to provide users with access to a new tab page that is packed with various features that can enhance their online experience by providing them with a neat list of online games that they can play from their Web browser directly. However, the extension's publisher does not own any of the games that ArcadeTab promotes and, instead, their software simply offers games hosted on 3rd-party websites and services. While using ArcadeTab is certainly not a problem, some users are unlikely to be happy with the search results that this new tab provides. Currently, ArcadeTab uses the Yahoo Search to display results so that users will not be bothered by sponsored ads, results, and other issues. However, this might change at any point, so that don't be surprised if you find out soon that ArcadeTab is displaying search results or other unwanted content.
The installation of ArcadeTab can't happen without the user's approval, and we have not identified yet any cases in which this software is being distributed via dubious methods. Some users might encounter ads that promote ArcadeTab, but they are unlikely to see it being included in software bundles.
If ArcadeTab is not a piece of software you'd like to use, then we advise you to remove it from your computer since this is the only surefire way to restore your browser's previous configuration. The removal of ArcadeTab can be carried out either by uninstalling the add-on from your browser manually or by running a suitable PC security application. The latter method is possible because ArcadeTab is being classified as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) by many anti-virus products.
