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 Mindspark Interactive Network has added another product to its portfolio – MyDigitalCalendar. This extension is meant to improve the users' online experience by allowing them to organize tasks, meetings, and set up reminders from their Web browser directly. This software is available for Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome so that the majority of Internet users should be able to take advantage of what it has to offer. However, we'd like to warn our readers that the installation of MyDigitalCalendar only can be completed under certain conditions that some users might find annoying. Chrome users who wish to take advantage of MyDigitalCalendar's services will need to authorize the add-on to replace their new tab page, while users with other Web browsers will need to allow it to replace both their homepage and new tab page. While these changes are not threatening, some users are likely to find them annoying since they may have an adverse impact on the user's Web browsing experience.
Just like many other Mindspark products, MyDigitalCalendar also is meant to bring more traffic to MyWay.com, a search engine that is used by a broad range of Mindspark products. In this case, MyDigitalCalendar will include the URL hp.myway.com/mydigitalcalendar/ttab02/ in the user's browser settings, therefore increasing the amount of traffic this page receives. All searches executed through this site will take the user to the Yahoo Search eventually.
Although MyDigitalCalendar is classified as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) by major companies in the cybersecurity field, it is not mandatory to remove this software. MyDigitalCalendar is not harmful, and you are welcome to use it if you don't have anything against the changes MyDigitalCalendar may bring to your browser's settings. However, if you do not wish to use browser extensions, which force you to use an alternative new tab and homepage configuration, then you need to take care of MyDigitalCalendar's removal. This task can be handled either manually or by running a suitable computer security utility.
