Thread Name: Tech: Hijacked e-mail address
Subject: Tech: Hijacked e-mail address
About a month ago, I suddenly lost all my Contacts from Windows Live Mail then the trouble started! I have had literally hundreds of "Undelivered Message" reports referring to e-mails to addresses I have never heard of and lots of contacts by friends who tell me they have received an e-mail from me, headed "Important Message" that "looked suspicious"! I have run an Anti-virus programme and changed my password but I still keep getting the messages. I have contacted my e-mail provider who was not much help, other than to tell me that my e-mail address had been hacked, which was what I told them in the first place!
Oh for John in Kansas! Can any one advise please?
