hack my email and send nasty messages

My email is used to send nasty messages to my mailing list.  This has happened for several days. I ran any security system I and cleaned up my drive. What can I do? Marilyn

Hello

If someone is Spoofing emails that appear to come from you then they probably never
had access to your e-mail account. Instead, they have either a copy of your contacts
list or just an email from you or one of you where you were one of the recipients. Those
could be gleaned either your computer, the computer of a friend, or hacking
any site or intercept an email on your behalf or to you (you may not be the main)
(beneficiary).

Once they have this information there is nothing you can do to avoid that they don't
send usurped messages. Warn your friends that is happening and they
can be entitled to install rules such as parodies are treated as SPAM or JUNK
mail.

I've even seen usurped by email that appears to be from a valid user name however
This name doesn't have an e-mail account on the mail system used in parody.
As SpiritX - AT - realmail.com may be a valid account, however, parody used
SpiritX - AT - wrongmail.com. The latter could still be considered an email address valid
SpiritX if it was allowed through JUNK and JUNK e-mail filtering. (The - AT - has been used
instead of so that those addresses would not be filtered by auto responses.
as if by magic.)

============================================================

Proceed to a very thorough check for malware and then change your password by e-mail.

The reason why you want to do this is to make sure no more hacking your computer is
still in effect (if it has been hacked). You have changed the password once but I would
Change it again after these checks.

It is possible for a person to send the email that 'seems' to be of your
account but that is not really - called "Spoofing." That means its 'Possible' emails
were not really you, although they may have your contact list. Have someone
who receives the e-mails to check the header to see where he is actually sent by and
NOT only the answer to the address.

=============================================

If you need search malware here's my recommendations - they will allow you to
scrutiny and the withdrawal without ending up with a load of spyware programs running
resident who can cause as many questions as the malware and may be more difficult to detect as the
cause.

No one program cannot be used to detect and remove any malware. Added that often easy
to detect malicious software often comes with a much harder to detect and remove the payload. Then
its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one
extreme overkill point and then run the cleaning only when you are sure that the system is clean.

It can be made repeatedly in Mode safe - F8 tap that you start, however, you must also run
the regular windows when you can.

  • Hotmail issue - a problem when deleting the Junk email and send to delete folder

    I get a lot of those Nigerian e-mails 911 lately and they are in my junk e-mail folder. I never open these emails, 'Check all' delete mailboxes and sending them to the folder to delete.

    In the past two weeks, what I noticed is that somewhere in transit between the junk in the suppression file folder, these suspicious emails end in the folder delete UNBOLDED; they are regular font type.  Other ones I deleted at the same time, I know are not suspects, are characters fat as it should.

    How an email that I didn't open end upwards in the folder to remove the? (as it is opened in transit to the folder to be deleted). It started only recently and I'm a little worried. It's as if it opens on the path to the folder to delete.  I know it sounds crazy, but it's true.

    Can someone tell me if my account could possibly be compromised in some way?  Is it a problem that I should be concerned?

    (I apologize if this is the wrong place for this post, but I had zero luck trying to ask a question on my hotmail account).

    Thank you very much.

    Currently, I use Windows Vista and access my email using Windows Mail.  When I am connected to my internet router 'House', I can send and receive emails, absolutely perfect.  When I am away from home and try to connect to an internet router to the hotel (with a key) or internet router to friends (with a key), I can only receive emails and not send.  I get the error message is: the connection to the server has failed.  He then mentions the details into account, server, Protocol, Port and secure (SSL) followed by the Socket error: 10060 and the error number: 0x800CCC0E.  Anyone know why I have a problem when I'm away from home?  Any help much appreciated.

    Looks like you are running in a block of 25 port. What you experienced is normal. As a general rule, the owner of port 25 SMTP server you use must be the same as the entity that provides your Internet connection at the moment. To learn more about this issue, see anti-spam
     
    The workarounds available when sending abroad are the following:
     
    1. use webmail to send (via your browser).
    2. ask your ISP if they have one port other than '25' for SMTP.
    3. If you frequently send multiple locations, get free Gmail account, configure it for POP access, set up in Windows Mail and use it to
    your shipment of household chores. Gmail uses port 465 for SMTP, which is not blocked as is port 25.

  • I was able to receive and send text messages (NOT iMessage) from my Apple Watch, even if I had left my phone at work, 10 miles away.  How is that possible?

    My phone does not connect to a WiFi to work because it's a restricted network.  I have a macbook and an ipad at home, but the iPad died (battery) and my macbook had power, but had fallen asleep.  I don't understand.  Think my phone has to be in my bag if I was getting texts, but he found in my office this morning.  Is my watch somehow 'work' through my macbook ASLEEP?

    Hello

    Subject to your carrier supporting the appeal of Wi - Fi and function has been activated on your iPhone, Wi - Fi calling can be used to make and receive phone calls as well as - when supported by the carrier - for text messaging / SMS over Wi - Fi.

    When the Wi - Fi is enabled on your iPhone, the service is also available via Apple Watch, even when it is connected to a known Wi - Fi network and the pair iPhone is not available.

    In the United States, for example, both AT & T and T-Mobile currently support send and receive SMS via Wi - Fi calling.

    Very strange question here.

    I have a client (I am a network consultant) who use a BB and he can get his email on this subject. It uses the BIS service and had no problem. However when he tries to send, it provides only people outside of its local area. One of his colleagues don't get his email. But the even weirder part is that the e-mail he sends to co-workers appear in his sent items box. They just get lost somewhere in the maze.

    Any ideas?

    We use an Exchange Server 2003 and GFI MailEssentials for SPAM solution.

    What you have will help you.

    Josh

    Found. One of his colleagues had inadvertently added to the global blacklist. And since its BB was technically sending from outside that he blocked only incoming emails.

    I was able to remove the user from the list and emails are now crossing all internal users.

    Hi Waynedeatherage,

    1. what email account are facing problems with?

    2. have you tried to change the password for your account?

    Best way to prevent someone to enter your email account is to choose a strong password.

    If you are faced with the question, even after changing the password, then you will need to contact your email provider for assistance.
