Someone has broken into my Yahoo! mail and accessed my contact list and has sent several Viagra ads yesterday and today to people in my contact list....it's called spooling or spoofing?? Is there anything that you do to prevent this from happening?

Hello.

You probably need to check your computer for malware. To scan for malware, install, update and run these programs in this order. They are all free for personal use, but some have limited functionality in their "free mode", but the features you'll miss are not really needed to find and remove the problem you have. Remember that not all programs detect the same malware!

If these don't find it or can't clear it, please tell me and I'll provide you with further assistance.
