What are some common methods used to distribute malware?

### REPLY:
One effective method to distribute malware is through a drive-by download attack. This involves injecting malicious code into legitimate websites, so that when a user visits the site, the code is automatically downloaded onto their system without their knowledge. Another method is through email attachments or links, where the recipient is tricked into opening or clicking on a malicious file. Additionally, malware can be distributed through infected USB drives or by exploiting vulnerabilities in software or operating systems.
