What are some common ways that malware spreads to infect computers?

### REPLY:
One common method for malware to spread is through phishing emails, where attackers disguise themselves as legitimate organizations to trick users into opening malicious attachments or clicking on malicious links. Another way is through drive-by downloads, where malware is automatically downloaded onto a user's computer when they visit a compromised website. Additionally, malware can also spread through infected USB drives or by exploiting vulnerabilities in outdated software or operating systems.
