Hi

I've been using my hotmail account for YEARS!! and over the past few months I've been noticing stupid emails getting sent to me and being sent FROM my account. Apparently I'm telling people to buy viagra or something haha

Now, I use Adium for my msn. This is a brand new mac so I dont think I have any viruses in my laptop so it must be something or someone accessing my account.

Im away to change my password, but is there anything else I can try to get rid of these stupid bugs?

Cheers
 
There was a thread describing a similar situation not too long ago, but I can't find it. You should change your password ASAP and/or stop using a crappy service like hotmail. You can have e-mails forwarded to a GMail (or whatever) address if you switch.
