It's easier than many people think. Getting a search link that takes you to a site with cross script Java injections is one way. Another is simply doing a search on something topical. like lava in Hawaii and getting a bad link. Downloading software you think is supposed to help your system in some way is a great way to get malware. I have dozens of examples from a handful of customers. Even one that got a malware infection doing a Christmas cookie search December 2 years ago.
Unfortunately most anti virus software won't stop some of the malware that was asked to enter your system. In short you gave it permission.
