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.

LolyKey is another Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) that exhibits adware symptoms. Customarily, adware developers utilize questionable marketing methods when it comes to the distribution of their products. For example, the most common means of distribution is by bundling adware applications with other free programs. Thanks to bundling, it is quite often that users are not aware that they have installed a PUP or adware on their system. Once inside the machine, LolyKey installs as a Web browser extension that starts collecting information about your browsing activities automatically. Afterward, plenty of annoying advertising materials are displayed to you while browsing the Web. Ads by LolyKey are not reliable as they are a redirecting platform to third party websites.
