Drive-by download
Refers to the unintentional download of certain programmes from the Internet. This may be because of a lack of user understanding (such as agreeing to EULAs without reading through them), or an automated download of certain programmes in accordance with the programme developer's design. In the wild, malware has been observed to exploit certain browser vulnerabilities to perform drive-by downloading of arbitrary files.
