Accounts Hotmail send email to all addresses in the address book when the PC is off.
Yesterday at about 7.25 GMT my hotmail address has been used to send emails 8, each of them the maximum number of addresses possible for a single e-mail, covering between them all the addresses in my address book.
Each of the 8 mails had an attachment, which resembled a hot link to the web. Each of the links 8 web was different, but all have the feb.php extension. People who have actually opened the emails said web pages did not exist yet, but no doubt the web link contained a malicious link.
One of the recipients was my wife, and today his hotmail address has been used in the same way. Between the whiles we had bought Spybot software and he had met PC everything and got rid of suspicious data, so I am puzzled that this always happening to my wife. I changed my hotmail password and it will soon change his, but all of our recipients will have to do the same thing, or is it too late?

Send emails to all your contacts
Hello
I use APEX 4.2 to implement a project. One of the requirements is to send an e-mail to all e-mail addresses stored in the table.
Can anyone suggest anyway to make this option?Sure...
Define a procedure that makes a loop on all records relevant to your table. Then, use the APEX_MAIL.send procedure to send.
begin for i in (select email from emp) loop apex_mail.send(); -- work out the parameters for yourself. end loop; apex_mail.push_queue(); end;

My Hotmail account has been compromised and sends spam to all my contacts!
I want to delete this account. I went through the steps to remove and it says "account closed" but it is always send spam to everyone on my contact list.
Hello
Proceed to a very thorough check for malware and then change your email password (If
the account is still very active).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.How to read the message headers

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

its best to be thorough than paying the high price later now too. Check with them to one

my email is automatically sent drugs online / _ links to ALL my contacts.Hotmail is not allowing me to change my password. I go through the steps, but it does not save the password
You need to discuss with your mail provider (Hotmail). t-4-2 provides you with the appropriate links. They are the ones who can access these things on your account and shut up (although I'm not sure they can stop emails being sent to your name, even if the account is closed because the source is probably not the ISP or e-mail provider but an unknown location abroad). But do not notify them immediately in order to take appropriate measures (and don't forget to discuss how you will have access to your files if they close your account - you will need to keep it open long enough to move the information elsewhere). The e-maiils appear in your sent items or you you told about it by your contacts, but there is no evidence in your account?
You must also report it to the authorities (the police) so they can try to track down those criminals who cause damage even more before all is said and done.
You can also report it to the internet crime complaint center if necessary

Thunderbird downloads emails from the mail server to its own server?
Download Thunderbird and Horus email on its own server, or wiat for pull emails from my mail server until I have connect and download them?
There is no 'server Thunderbird', so that solves the first part of your question.
I don't know what you mean by "log in."
Thunderbird, retrieves all in all, your messages from the server when you tell him, or you can configure it to do periodically.
To access your messages, he must know the username of the e-mail account (very often all or part of your e-mail address) and the corresponding password. If you allow Thunderbird store the password, there is no need even to think of "connection" to the mail server.
I said "basically" because with some IMAP servers, messages seem to be fed to Thunderbird as and when they become available, assuming he is alive and online.

Droid delete contacts on its own! Help!
Ive had my moto Droid since January, and I love the thing. Here's the thing, I have my facebook contacts synced to the phone which is really awesome and works very well. Here's the thing, if I create a contact on my own on the droid and create in my gmail account, after a week or two it will not in my phone more! Its as the phone just delete the contact by itself. Can someone help me with this problem.
I had many problems of contact (among many others). I got contacts mesh, deleted, lost and found later. I just activated my newest Droid last week and lost a bunch of my contacts. Just today, I connected to my gmail and found that my contacts were divided into two categories. We have 'My contacts' mathes the amount of contacts on my phone. And then there's the "all contacts" where all my contacts that have been synchronized on gmail are located. If you select "All contacts" and then select the option "move to my contacts" appears on the screen, everything will transfer more. They will only appear on your phone, however, if your phone is correctly synchronized to your gmail account in the settings of the phone.
Droid = headache!

How can I go about sending new e-mail address to all my contacts from Outlook Express?
New mailing address of email to all my contacts from outlook express
How can I go on to send new email to all my contacts from outlook express addressThe same way send you a message to all your contacts.
- Open a new message window
- Click on the button to

Hotmail-hidden? addresses in the contact list
HI-Can someone please help, in hotmail-when starting a new email, if I choose 'select all' contacts to show all addresses, I note when I sent the e-mail that there are 2 thugs * addresses on the list of sent ("Adultchat HornygirlHere") that I haven't added or visited these sites. I can't get rid of them - like when you go into contacts to see, they are not visible. I sent an e-mail with a hotmail screenshot to show, but they never responded. Can anyone help me to get out them of my address list when they are not easily visible to delete, another that singularly checking the box to delete next to each one, whenever I want to just beginning an email to all my contacts.
