    received hotmail postmaster email that failed to deliver the following email that I did not send.  I ran full scan using 3 different software including ms onecare, none of them found virus or malware.  How was the email sent?  Just someone used my login to send it?  I've change changed my password, what else do I need to do to secure my pc/accnt? 

    Thanks.

    I am form kuwait

    Usually changing your password will fix that issue. If they were able to either phish your accounts password and login or they were able to figure it out cause it may have been an easy one.
