Hi do you use a web based mail ?  I.e. GMail, Hotmail or the like ?

Also are the e-mails that were sent appearing in your sent folder ?

Warning This fix is only relevant for this system and no other, using on another computer may cause problems

Be advised that when the fix commences it will shut down all running processes and you may lose the desktop and icons, they will return on reboot

Run OTL
  • Under the Custom Scans/Fixes box at the bottom, paste in the following


Code: [Select]
:OTL
[2012-10-28 21:16:59 | 000,005,380 | ---- | M] () (No name found) -- C:\Users\Francois\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\cwuytk05.default-1346937967658\extensions\508ddb1b36917@508ddb1b36951.com.xpi
O20 - AppInit_DLLs: (c:\progra~2\browse~1\251005~1.80\{c16c1~1\browse~1.dll) - File not found


:Commands
[emptytemp]
[CREATERESTOREPOINT]
[Reboot]
  • Then click the Run Fix button at the top
  • Let the program run unhindered, reboot the PC when it is done
  • Open OTL again and click the Quick Scan button. Post the log it produces in your next reply.

As there were a few in your sent folder then the first priority will be to change the password as the account was hacked

Currently I can see no malware on your computer, I can check deeper if you wish..  How is the computer behaving otherwise ?

I think you will find it was a hacked account... Let it be for a day or so and if no further problems are evident I will remove my tools

The e-mail would be the main one as that is what I believe was hacked...  You will be amazed by the number of webmail accounts that get hacked
