My girlfriend's Yahoo Mail sent folder suddenly shows a bunch of advertising emails that she never sent.
I suspect that she must have clicked on something in an email sent to her and now her Mac is sending the virus out to all of her contacts (SURPRISINGLY NOT TO ME).
As I never had to deal with this problem, because I never click on anything suspicious, I really do not know how to help her get rid of this malware.
How does this work anyway? Will her Mac be sending out Spam when she logs into her Yahoo account, or did someone snatch her Yahoo password and it is going to be happening even when she is not logged into her Yahoo Mail account?
Any ideas?
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance
