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.

Royal Raid is a suspicious extension that may appear in your Web browser automatically. The name of this add-on has nothing to do with its functionality. The purpose of this questionable software, whose developer remains unknown, is to boost the incoming traffic to sponsored third-party webpages. The term for add-ons that perform in this manner is 'adware'. The reason you may agree to load it without knowing is that Royal Raid may rely on other free programs to enter. It is hard to find a site that hosts it, but if you load freeware, it may bring Royal Raid as a recommended additional component that should optimize your online shopping. The good news is that it is relatively easy to keep such unwanted tools away from your PC. You should read the details that the 'Advanced' menu displays, and uncheck unwanted parts of the installer manually.
In order to promote its partners, Royal Raid may generate various pop-ups, banners, in-text ads and videos. You also may encounter interstitial ads that appear as page-wide commercial windows above the sites you want to view. The existence of large quantities of unwanted ads in Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer may be quite annoying. If they indeed improve the Internet shopping of the client, they could be regarded as helpful. However, the commercial materials may not be of any utility to you because they may lead to unknown e-commerce sites. Since their legitimacy is not guaranteed, it may not be safe to trust them with your money. Some users report that they are unable to delete Royal Raid manually, which means you should use advanced security software for the task.
