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.

Adware.2YourFace is a browser add-on that claims to add functions related to video and audio chatting for Facebook. Unfortunately, SpywatreRemove.com malware experts also noted that Adware.2YourFace couples these benign features with unwarranted browser changes that insert advertisements into your online searches and other web content. Adware.2YourFace infections can occur in several ways, most surreptitiously through being bundled with unrelated applications.
Adware.2YourFace: Filling Your PC with Expressions of Capitalism
Adware.2YourFace justifies its existence by offering Facebook additions that actually no longer require 2YourFace to be available: webcam-based video calling features. Even though its positive features no longer offer anything to make Adware.2YourFace worth installing, Adware.2YourFace continues to be marketed through various sites as a supposedly helpful browser plugin. SpywatreRemove.com malware research team also has noted that many sites that are affiliated with Adware.2YourFace installations have been blacklisted for promoting malicious content, and, in general, should not be trusted.
Adware.2YourFace's real features appear to be focused more on driving revenue streams through unnecessary advertisements that are inserted into your web-browsing content. SpywatreRemove.com malware researchers have noted multiple symptoms in Adware.2YourFace's advertising attacks, including:
- Browser redirects that take your online searches to search.conduit.com and other sites.
- Additional advertisements that are mixed in with your search results.
- Interface changes for both your browser in general and, specifically, the Facebook website.
Some variants of Adware.2YourFace also may include other adware features, such as pop-ups, hyperlinked text changes and other unwarranted browser alterations. Taken together, Adware.2YourFace's functions may harm your web browser's speed or utilize excessive system memory.
Wiping Adware.2YourFace's Commercials Off of the Face of Your Internet
Since Adware.2YourFaces positive features have been rendered obsolete and its negative ones are completely unjustified, SpywatreRemove.com malware experts never recommend that you keep Adware.2YourFace installed. However, temporary contact with Adware.2YourFace's advertisements shouldn't be a danger to your PC – even if any prolonged interaction with them is inadvisable.
Adware.2YourFace can be installed manually from any of several sites, but bundled installations with unrelated freeware programs are the most common sources of Adware.2YourFace infections.
Adware.2YourFace isn't dedicated to a specific brand of web browser. All types of browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer and Opera, are vulnerable to Adware.2YourFace. At this point in time, SpywatreRemove.com malware researchers haven't seen Adware.2YourFace infecting non-Windows operating systems, but similar types of adware have been shown displaying more cross-OS compatibility than Adware.2YourFace. Most versions of Windows, including Windows 7 and 8, can be considered in danger from potential Adware.2YourFace infections.
