Well you've got a virus or spy-ware or both.  You need some software in order to clean you system.  \n\n1) Get an AntiVirus.  AVG by GriSoft (http://free.grisoft.com) is a good FREE one.  BE SURE to set up the auto-updates to make sure your scanner is up to date at all times.  Though sometimes the Anti-Virus program can get infected when you install it.  If that happens, the only thing you can do is a low level format of your HD and reinstall windows and everything.\n\n2) Get some good Anti-Spyware programs.  If you are running Windows then the MS AntiSpyware is pretty good (based on a program called 'Giant', and there's AD-Aware, and SPyBot (you can find those by a google search)\n\n3) BE CAREFUL of what Email attachments you open.  You can't get a Virus just by downloading an Email, you must open the attachment.  9 times outta 10 this is how you \nget infected.   IF someone sends you an Attachment.. VERIFY with that person that they sent it before you open it.  And if you get an Email from somone you don't know.. just delete it.\n\n4) Get a firewall if you don't have one.  If you are connected to the internet though a Router. you don't need\na software firewall.  ZoneAlarm is a good free firewall.

I'd just delete as soon as possible if I were you - its notorious for letting in spyware/adware and whatever email address you gave it will soon be filled with spam!\n\nYour incoming and outgoing mail server is your internet service provider (ISP). So mines would be pop.tiscali.co.uk and smtp.tiscali.co.uk respectively since tiscali is my service provider. If in doubt look up pop and smtp configurations on google and you should find the info you're looking for.

Delete unnecessary emails and run a spy-ware removal program.  Ad-aware is good and free.

This is spam and you are giving your address book to the perpertrators. don't do it and report it to your ISP service moderator

Any email may be a candidate for a computer virus. As a good and safe practice, delete any emails from your system when you do not recognize the sender.  Spammers have the ability to change the date to anything they wish. More than likely it is just spam.  I would strongly suggest you install an anti-virus program on your computer and keep it current.\n\nI hope that this helps.

please specify which email service you are using and how do you know that your email id is being used.\n\nSee, sometimes it happens that your friends or colleagues might receiove some email from you account which you never sent and has some weired attachments. This could be a virus and not someone intentionally using your account. If you are having this problem in your company account then please contact your company's network administrator to remove the virus from email server.

Illegal sites, yes and that doesn't guarantee you won't get viruses. Anything you download or receive as attachments in email can contain all kinds of things that can harm your computer.

Sounds like peoples' address books are being stored locally on their individual computer, and not on your server. If they were pulling the addresses from the server, as they should, they'd be getting the updated 3-person group.\n\nIn any case, there's a little check box somewhere in Outlook's myriad of settings where you can turn off that auto-suggest function. just can't find it right now, sorry!

It could be a worm, virus, trojan, etc. don't open it. Just delete it and report them to your email provider.

Just block the mail with the Yahoo spam gaurd, it should do the rest, if not it's someone attacking you with a randomizer and I sudgest making the settings on your mail secure for one, and so only people in your address book can send stuff to your inbox.

Looks like a virus. When you get it, delete it. It will tell the computers that sent you spam, that you're e-mail address is invalid.

That means that you were sent a socalled "AIM Virus"  they will just send out spam files to fill up hard drives.  It will send it to most of the people on your list, too.  I would suggest asking BEFORE you download it.

It is most likely that your email address has been used to "spoof" emails to people. Spoofing is where someone uses your email address as the address on an email they sent to others. Difficult to defend against.\n\nAnother possiblity is that you have a computer virus that has taken over your email address book, but then the emails would come from people that were in your address book. You should use an antivirus software program at all times. Just in case you might want to do a virus scan of your computer.

either you had a virus and it sent everything out through your email and these are the returns (unlikely) or someone spoofed your email address and all the email they sent out is being returned to you (more likely)
