See the other answers, you have obtained, but also be aware of the possibility that it is * not * your hotmail that sends messages. Rather your list of contacts may have been copied by malware and messages are sent from a different computer.

My hotmail contacts folder has been consulted for my contacts spam. I know that I can change my password/details etc. It's an account that I used a few years ago came as a request of hotmail if I may want this account related to the one I use now. Stupidly, I agreed. I have no way to access this account, but I can see on my account from windows live that it is connected to my checking account. I think it's my problems are coming from. Someone knows how can I UN-link and preference to totally delete this account?

TB don't DL msgs - DL Will one msg, a same, think I have a virus?
Messages see 'X', but only try to DL, receiving a message - even one - over and over. Do not open it. He said it as "Ivan". The line Re said "Baby". Don't know anyone by that name. Think there might be a virus or something or system is infected if not.
I have searched the forum and help files, started cold, tried to remove all the add ons have disabled antivirus and firewall. Don't know what else to try. I'm not a power user. I understand things, so I'm not a beginner, so I can follow the instructions to fix the registry, etc., but need specific assistance.
Appreciate any help. Thank you all. System of TB next report:
