Threat Metric
The Threat Meter is a malware assessment that SpywareRemove.com's research team is able to
give every identifiable malware threat. Our Threat Meter includes several criteria based off of
specific malware threats to value their severity, reach and volume. The Threat Meter is able to give
you a numerical breakdown of each threat's initial Threat Level, Detection Count, Volume Count,
Trend Path and Percentage Impact. The overall ranking of each threat in the Threat Meter is a basic
breakdown of how all threats are ranked within our own extensive malware database. The scoring for
each specific malware threat can be easily compared to other emerging threats to draw a contrast in
its particular severity. The Threat Meter is a useful tool in the endeavor of seeking a solution to
remove a threat or pursue additional analytical research for all types of computer users.
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.

System Security is a rogue PC security application. System Security is often downloaded and installed by a Trojan, through browser security holes, or via other unconventional and unethical mechanisms. Once installed, System Security will display notifications of imaginary security and privacy risks in its attempts to get the user to purchase the full version and may generate system slowdown and instability. This program can be extremely difficult to manually remove. System Security is a clone of Winweb Security, alarge family of rogue security programs with members such as Live Security Platinum.

thanks for your help-I\'ll be down loading your software soon jaxs
I encountered the Systemsecurity virus on a computer with Windows Vista while
downloading freeware.
I wil try the manual instructions, if that does not work I will purchase the recommeneded software.
Thank you
I have System Security on my home computer. I as inquiring about it's removal from my office computer. I have tried the Add/Remove Programs, but to no avail. I have AVG Virus protector on my computer, but it didn't pickup or remove the System Security. I wanted to know ahead of time the cost of downloading SpyHunter Malware. What is the monthly or yearly expense.
Thanks,
Philip Russell
I have this new unwated program calles system security..I already have Mcfee
so there for I want to delete this program.
Please show me the easy way to delete this program!!!
Not a happy camper,
Peter
Thank you now all I need to do is get rid of Security Systems........
system security has really mucked up a lot. My desktop programs such as Ad-Aware, spybot, and malwarebytes do not work at all,nor my antivirus which is uptodate: neither does regedit. Nor Firefox. IE still works but this program is messing me up. I cannot even pretype a text document or a rich text document as it [REMOVED WORD]s up access to it after it is first created on the desktop. I cannot see your security image at all(I think I have an idea about that but that would mean I would have to dump XP and go back to Win 98 as I have an XP upgrade disc in the drive at the moment and certain filles are being refused...I was planning on reloading XP to get past this thing, but that is a no go. This is crud.
It won't let me go into task manager,
what should I do?
The fastest and easiest way to get rid of this mess is to use your PC's system recovery discs and go back to a day or two before the virus hit. My infection was so bad I could not open the Task Manager, Control Panel, Internet Explorer, or any other program or file that would give me the ability to remove this thing. None of the instructions on any of the sites I found worked because of this. Good luck!
I've been trying to get the System Security off my laptop and so far, nothing is working. It denies the Spyware, and won't run it, calling it "infected". I can't find ANY files on it and it's driving me up the WALL! What "files" do I need to really search for in order for this to work? It denies everything that I try to fix. Please, help me!
Want to use your program but System Security will not allow me do anything on my computer. Do you have any suggestions for me. I certainly want to my computer of this nasty program.
I have a friend whose PC is infected with System Security. It would not allow any of the tools mentioned to open: e.g. Task Manager, System Restore, DOS emulator (command prompt window), the existing security software (which had been disabled-I'm not sure if it was done by the malware or by another user), msconfig, and even Spyhunter's Malware Scanner. In fact, it prevented almost every program from opening up (including backup) that I tried, except IE. I performed a system recovery, which seemed to fix the problem, but the next morning, it came back when one of the users accessed the internet using the AOL browser. I was assured that the security software had been reinstalled and that all updates had been done before this happened. I haven't been back to check it yet, and have no further information on the status or severity of the problem at this point. The OS is Windows XP Home. AOL is v9.0 or 9.1, I'm not sure which. The security software is the Verizon Internet Security Suite.
The version of System Security that I am running in to here is much harder to deal with than the one described on this page, because of the chokehold it has on applications. If anyone can provide me with any info or suggestions, I would be grateful.
Thank you.
Has any one found the filth that made this hack? Has this individual/group been shut down yet?
