There are several methods to distribute malware through malicious websites. One popular technique is to exploit vulnerabilities in web browsers or plugins, such as Java or Flash, to deliver the malware onto the visitor's computer. Another method is to use malicious advertisements or pop-ups that lead users to download and install malware unknowingly. Additionally, attackers may employ social engineering tactics, such as fake software updates or deceptive download buttons, to trick users into downloading and executing malware.
