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.

PerfectRegistry is a PC optimization utility, which is meant to help users enhance their computer's performance and stability by fixing Registry issues and optimizing the overall work of the Windows Registry automatically. While this may sound handy, you should know that contemporary versions of the Microsoft Windows perform these tasks automatically, and Microsoft itself states that the usage of Registry optimizers is not recommended since they might often end up causing more harm than good.
Another reason why you might want to stay away from PerfectRegistry is that this software suite has attracted the attention of multiple major names in the cybersecurity field, and all of them have classified this application as a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP). Software of this sort is not unsafe, but its installation might cause minor annoyances and irritating issues that most users are likely to want to avoid. In the case of PerfectRegistry, users might be bothered by the fact that the free version of this utility only allows them to scan the Windows Registry and compile a report of recommended optimizations. However, PerfectRegistry will not apply any fixes until the user opts to pay for the full product whose price has been set at $19.99 by the publisher, Raxco Software Inc.
If you do not wish to pay the full price for PerfectRegistry, then you should proceed to uninstall this program since it has nothing of value to offer. The removal of PerfectRegistry can be completed manually because the threat is not harmful, but if you want to be certain that all of its files will be erased, then we recommend using a credible PC security software suite.
