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.

Fix Tool, or FixTool, is a rogue anti-spyware program designed to trick users into purchasing its full rogue version. Fix Tool may infect your computer through a Trojan, spam emails or it may have come bundled with another malicious program. Fix Tool sells itself as an effective spyware remover tool, however, all it does is make you believe you're infected with numerous spyware threats to offer its "licensed" program.
Once you're infected, you'll receive a large amount of popups and system notifications of imaginary spyware threats found in your computer system. To remove these imaginary threats and "protect" yourself, you'll be redirected to Fix Tool's website or another rogue website to finally purchase the rogue Fix Tool's full version.
Fix Tool's trial version is also able to run a fake computer system scan and display a list of security risks supposedly found in your computer system. These risks will not be removed unless you first buy Fix Tool's "licensed" program.
