A short time ago MWR helped me resolve a situation regarding the hijacking of my email account. Dorothy walked me through a cleansing and I have faith it took. Today I received a phone call from a good friend in Washington, DC saying someone at internet address 201.253.112.182, named TelecomApoloLadoTasa, in Buenos Aires, Argentina, had sent out a blanket email to a large number of addressees in my email address book. This is the same thing that happened before. I checked the "sent" folder of my email and discovered the email did not come from my account. Apparently someone has hijacked the addresses and is using them to send a virus of some sort. I have changed my Yahoo email login password on my friend's suggestion. What other actions should I be taking, and what sort of log do you need from me?
