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.

Rewinup Cinema is adware made by a company called REWINUP LLC. It isn't a stand-alone video player as some users may assume wrongly. This tool may come in the form of a web add-on that can work just as well on all popular browsers. Rewinup Cinema cannot help you watch movies; all it offers is a slight modification to the browser-based videos. Just like most of the ad-oriented plugins, the functionality of this software may be troublesome. The promoted features often serve only one goal, which is to encourage users to load the tiny application. For example, it is very questionable that Rewinup Cinema will let you play all video formats or include subtitles of your choice. Instead, when this add-on reaches Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer, it may cause you many issues. The adware may include various pop-ups, banners and interstitial ads all over the pages you open. Some of these commercial materials, especially the in-text ads, may be placed in such a way that you may click on them inadvertently. Rewinup Cinema promises to let you find the hottest videos that are worth watching. Instead, the adware may try to redirect you to the pages of its partners in exchange for referral commissions. The dubious plugin may achieve this task by changing your default search engine. You may notice an unknown and unreliable search platform as your homepage. In case you use it, which is not recommended, you may see many sponsored links concealed as the most accurate results.The presence of the unwanted ads may be a setback to your smooth surfing sessions because they may lead to sporadic freezes or an increased loading time. The worst case scenario is that some of the partners of Rewinup Cinema may host unsafe software, so you should consider removing it from your PC.
