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.

The Weather Hub Pro may seem like an attractive utility to install because it promises to provide you with the local weather conditions and the forecast whenever you run your Web browser. However, the way this extension provides this data might be rather questionable since it requires users to agree to use a new tab page that does not seem reputable. It is impossible to use the Weather Hub Pro without authorizing it to replace the Google Chrome's default new tab page so that you might want to think twice whether it is worth it to install this add-on. In addition to this mildly annoying change, the Weather Hub Pro also asks to read and change the data on all websites the user visits. Granting the extension these permissions might allow it to inject advertisements, therefore worsening your Web browsing experience significantly.
The installation of the Weather Hub Pro can only occur with the user's approval as we have not noticed situations in which the program was installed via software bundling or other dubious techniques. If you have installed the Weather Hub Pro software because of its convenient features recently, then you may be trying to find a way to dispose of it and revert the changes it brought currently. The removal of the Weather Hub Pro might not be that challenging since this is not a harmful application, and it does not appear to use any self-preservation methods.
To fully eliminate the Weather Hub Pro and restore Google Chrome's configuration you need to use the browser's extension manager and uninstall the Weather Hub Pro from there. In addition to this, you can accomplish the task with the help of a suitable PC security utility that specializes in the removal of Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUPs).
