Google programmers analyzed 4.5 million web pages, and then found out that approximately 450 thousand of them were able to download "malicious" software (Trojans and viruses) without the knowledge of the user.
The code responsible for downloading “malicious” software is most often found in parts uncontrolled by site owners, for example, in advertising banners, traffic counters, calendars taken from third parties.
Very often, attackers use human weaknesses to lure the user. For example, they write in the links that having passed through them, you can download pornography, or software.
