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.

Threat Level:	8/10
Infected PCs:	7

Jsl.infostatsvs is a JavaScript loader component that sees use in multiple applications, including some forms of threatening software. In a threatening context, Jsl.infostatsvs may cause recurring pop-up errors, and may be seen alongside poor system performance and attempts to create backdoor vulnerabilities. Because of the significant security risks involved with repetitive Jsl.infostatsvs warnings, malware researchers recommend that you resolve such incidents with immediate and conclusive anti-malware scans.

The Information on Common Jsl.infostatsvs Problems

Jsl.infostatsvs may be used legitimately in some programs, and normally only should be cast under suspicion if you see symptoms of security issues, or your security software generates warnings related to Jsl.infostatsvs. With respect to threatening software, the most common abuse of Jsl.infostatsvs is using Jsl.infostatsvs to initiate contact with remote servers, a process known as a backdoor attack. Hackers may use backdoor vulnerabilities to transfer collected information, install threats or modify the system settings of a compromised PC.

The most recent Jsl.infostatsvs incidents also include symptoms that malware experts tend to see with infections associated with click-fraud Trojans and digital currency miners. The most visible of these symptoms may consist of the following general issues:

Excessively long Windows startup times.
Unusual usage of system resources, such as RAM or CPU percentages (which can be viewed from the Windows Task Manager).
Sluggish overall performance, potentially including random software crashes.
Security warnings related to Jsl.infostatsvs or other forms of unauthorized network activity.
Changes to your firewall or network settings.

In the long term, these attacks may damage your PC's hardware or be responsible for additional issues, such as the installation of threats that could collect information. These extra attacks may or may not show symptoms of their own, independently from this list.

Stopping Jsl.infostatsvs Pop-Ups and the Threats that may Them

Jsl.infostatsvs is exploitable by multiple forms of threats, including Trojans with multiple components, rootkit-based protection or features meant to disable the rest of your PC's security. Some recent samples of Jsl.infostatsvs attacks have failed to overcome default firewall defenses; however, malware experts may see backdoor Trojans meant to disable the firewall or circumvent the protection it provides to network ports. Any incidents involving Jsl.infostatsvs should be dealt with by appropriate, measured use of your anti-malware software to remove any associated threats.

Jsl.infostatsvs is not always threatening or unsafe to your computer. In most circumstances, automated anti-malware protection should be able to identify exploited variants of Jsl.infostatsvs separately from harmless uses of this JavaScript component. If you believe that a Jsl.infostatsvs warning is a false positive or an inaccurate threat detection, contact the related PC security company. False positives in database detections normally are resolvable within the span of the next public update.
