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.

% 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.

Teras Games is the name of a gaming platform that can be found at terasgames.com. This site, which has been developed by Today Solutions, offers dozens of free online games. While they are safe to play, you may experience some problems in case you agree to download desktop applications from this domain. Exactly as the "Terms and Conditions" of this page state, the offered programs are supported by advertisements. You should know that the ads don't appear somewhere in the interface of the promoted games and "Windows service software applications". Instead, you may notice them throughout your surfing sessions, regardless if you use Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer. The Teras Games are associated with a browser extension that performs as traditional adware. It may insert the commercial materials to almost every site you load, which may very soon become a rather annoying process. The ads come in different formats: you may notice in-text ads, interstitial ads, pop-ups and banners. They may have adverse consequences for the performance of your web clients because they consume some of the system resources. As a result, your browsers may start working too slow, and some unexpected freezes or crashes may disrupt your online experience. The ads promote content that is relevant to the interests of the particular user. This correspondence happens because the adware keeps track of the sites you visit and the information you search. Even if they seem to be appealing, you should not click on the ads because you cannot be sure where they will lead you. Some of the sponsored platforms may host potentially unsafe software or display inaccurate information. If you decide not to keep the suspicious add-on, you can delete it easily with a credible anti-malware solution.
