Unless you have jailbroken your iOS devices, there are no viruses that can infect them. Sounds like PayPal tries to return the ball.

Can't receive mail from Hotmail account using the phone or windows live mail
Hello
I'm having a problem where I get a sign in error whenever I try to access my Hotmail account using my smartphone or windows live mail.
I CAN however use my web browser to connect and access the account in this way.
I tried using 2 different laptops (windows 7 on both) and my android phone.
I have reset the password twice and still have no chance to access the account outside the approach of above web browser.
It seems that this problem has affected my direct mail phone and windows at the same time, and I am at a loss for a line of conduct.
Does anyone have a solution?
Thanks in advance
It seems that if you have activated the two-step verification when you changed your
password. If you did, you can not use this password to authenticate in stupid
programs like Windows Live Mail which cannot ask or submit to security codes. You
need to generate a unique password app to use in situations like this. -

my hotmail account is sending emails without my permission

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