Help. email has mind of own

HELP
Just logged onto my computer and checked my email. Hotmail account, and it appears that today I have sent emails to everyone in my address book, the reason I know this is because some of the email addresses are out of date and I have gotten a postmaster failed to deliver message.

What can I do??

Change your hotmail password sharpish, in case someone has got it and is being naughty. Although it might just be some bounder using your email address as their return address and sending out spam.

sounds

suspiciously like some sort of trojan/virus. Suggest a THOROUGH check even if you have protection on the 'puter.

i had my hotmail acccount hacked and it ate all my inbox and sent offers of iphones and russian brides to many of my contacts

i changed my password and all is now ok, i put it down to push email on my phone (checking every 15 mins) - maybe, maybe not. but i stopped push email and all is ok now


bride importing business is good though
