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.

Great Hub is the next unreliable adware produced by the infamous developer Super Web Inc. All software products made by this company have identical ad-oriented features. Super Web Inc. may use them to profit from your actions when you are online. Great Hub may promote various third-party sites that seek a more reliable flow of visitors. The sponsored platforms may try to sell you products, thus turning you from a visitor to a client. The common opinion of PC users is that this adware doesn't assist them and instead may cause problems. The first issue of Great Hub concerns its installation method. This cross-compatible extension may be deployed to your PC by other freeware, an approach known as 'bundling.' Unless you run the installer via the 'Advanced' menu, you may not be able to deselect Great Hub manually. Since it covers all of the popular browsers, you may notice modifications no matter if you launch Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer. The Super Web extensions may set low-quality search sites as your homepage. This sign may be the first clue for you that something is wrong. You should stay away from such platforms for one simple reason – they may show manipulated results to make you visit partner sites unknowingly. Great Hub also may generate new commercial materials for the same purpose. They may obtain the form of pop-ups, banners, in-text ads, interstitial ads, transitional ads, etc. Some of the coupons and discounts may seem especially appealing because the adware may monitor your surfing history to adjust them. The experts' advice is to proceed with caution and to be very suspicious if some site offers you software. If it is corrupt, downloading it may infect your PC. Great Hub also may affect the browser's performance negatively. You will most likely not save money thanks to this adware, so you should not keep it.
