All the people in my address book keep getting disturbing emails from me and I havnt sent them , I think someone has accessed my address book via yahoo and copied it And is sending all the people I have addresses for . It is causing me many problems some days I dont put my computer on and find some people have had as many as 20 emails from me . I have windows 7 and A V G anti virus
I use AVG anti virus but I have just downloaded Avira anti virus free and it found TR/dropper,Gen Trojan which AVG didnt find so hopefully this will sort my problem out

Your account has been compromised, Yahoo strongly skill which you replace your password NOW. Then that's going to end. Run a pandemic test. Alert your contacts to no longer click any hyperlinks interior the message because of the fact it incredibly is a pandemic/laptop virus At one time somebody sent you an contaminated digital mail and that they did no longer understand. Like those forward chain mails. It latched directly to your touch checklist.
