There is alot of reasons why this could have happened.








Really the best thing for you to do is a virus scan or just reformat if you want to make totally sure to get rid of any type of trojans or keyloggers that are placed on your system. I recommend Avast! it's a free anti virus scanner and very good. Don't install more then one Anti Virus on your computer at a time.





You should also keep your Windows updated with the latest security patches.





I think your system is total compromised and should just be formatted but many will argue with me about this because they believe a simple spyware or virus scan will deal with it. I doubt it since many trojans can be made and never enter in the AV's database thus they are never detected.





You should try to log in your e-mail account and change your password. This will probably be some where in the e-mail options. You should only do this if your sure your system isn't compromised with trojans or some kind of keylogger or else it want matter if you change your password.
Reply:First, relax. Everyone at one point or another gets spam spatted in their e-mailbox. The likelymost reason comes from online shopping or registering/signing up for online contests or web services like....MySpace...etc, etc.





Spammers are both desperate and clever: it's good to report spam---evenutally they all get caught guilty of their muckery.





Change your password at least once every two months. Keep updated with ALL the latest Microsoft security patches for your version Windows, have that firewall up and running.....and keep your anti-virus scanner updated and scan for viruses once every three days. And keep a hardcopy printout of your current e-address book--in case you DO get hacked and locked out of your e-account.





Small effort for huge protection, measured with a degree of calm, common sense can go a long long way to keeping your PC safe.
