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.

My Shopping XP is not a toolbar that can improve your online shopping. This program is adware that may have extremely unpleasant consequences for your surfing sessions. It is another product of Informer Technologies, Inc – the same company that created My Coupons XP, My Socialhub XP and My Speedtest XP. The official page of My Shopping XP says that this toolbar can compare various deals automatically and show you the one with the lowest price. The adware will indeed expose you to various coupons, discounts and 'special' offers, but they may not assist you. The main problem is that these new pop-ups and banners may lead to shopping platforms that are too questionable to be trusted. It couldn't be otherwise when you take in mind that the established traders rely on their good name and not on ad-oriented extensions to attract visitors. Sometimes the sponsored links may even point you towards highly suspicious sites that you should avoid for security reasons. The commercial materials may quickly become tedious. What is more, they may cause small but annoying functionality problems with the browsers such as sporadic freezes. It is not necessary to go to myshoppingxp.com to install this adware. Informer Technologies, Inc may include its products into the installers of other applications. Thanks to this method, which is called 'bundling,' the existence of the toolbar in Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer may be a surprise to you. The only way to stop the loading of the aggressive commercial materials is to take measures to delete My Shopping XP Toolbar completely.
