Hotmail Account sending spam

    Hi,

    Just found out my hotmail account is sending spam email to all my contacts.

    I went into my sent mail in hotmail and there is hundreds of emails after being sent out - 1 to each contact.

    I have changed the password on my hotmail and facebook account.

    I am running Malwarebytes now

    Below is an example of the subject heading in the emails.

    Any ideas of what to do?

    If your scan shows nothing then it is just as likely that if your hotmail password was weak it was cracked.
