| How awful! Make sure to change your email password, and change it anywhere else that you use that same password, such as banking, facebook, etc. Ugh don't people have anything better to do?!?!? Hope you get your computer cleaned up, what a nightmare!

Yorkie Yakker | I had someone use my yahoo address too. It is weird because they only used the e-mail addresses that I have used when I use yahoo as web mail. So I think it may be a yahoo problem. Most of the time I use a pop3 server for my email, and download it to the computer. But a few times over the years I have done it online as web mail. Those are the only adresses that were sent the spam or virus. I am not sure if it had a virus or not. |

| It deleted all my contacts too, after sending them a msg that I was stranded in Spain... I found out when my bank called! So now if I add contacts, I'm going to put a bogus letter in the addy somewhere, and edit before I send. Pain in the butt, and not easy to do mass mailings.... Plus all that were sent ended up in my deleted folder... who ever looks there?
