Do your homework man. The blame game doesn't add up on this. If we are going to play it, why don't we blame the United States that funnels thousands of high-powered weapons into Mexico as well as hundreds of billions of dollars in drug money. Those drug cartels would overwhelm the RCMP any day. Have you seen the weapons they have?

Thousands of tourists do not die there either. Pure lies you spew.

Most likely: A friends Windozed box has been compromised and is spoofing your eMail as home address.

Less likely: Your Hotmail account is compromised. Change the primary, and any special security passwords. Can easily happen if using public Wireless or even poorly secured home wireless networks.

Whatever it is, it is a common hotmail problem on both Mac and PC. My boss had this problem with her personal hotmail account just a few weeks ago.

I think your post is basically what I had suggested but thanks for the confirmation for the possible problem and I would totally agree, or are you disagreeing with that suggestion???

As it seems like the hotmail password change as suggested will fix the OP's problem.
Right you are, pm-r, I didn't get to the 3rd paragraph of your post, since you started off with "you got a trojan".

And - the hotmail password change suggestion will NOT work if the problem isn't with the OP, but with someone the OP knows who has the OP in their address book. The password change only will help if indeed the Hotmail account was compromised.
