Failed mail problem

[mike]

I dread getting up in the morning and looking in my outlook express mailbox,
it seems to have been 'hijacked' to be sending mail out and then getting
returned as failed mail (over 200 during the night). I don't see that I have
sent any mail looking in the 'sent mail' folder though. I've had problems
like it before but have cured them somehow but this time the problen remains
no matter what I do. Strangely enough I have two email accounts set up but
it is only doing this on one account. Any ideas where I should look or what
I should look at?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Most probably someone has hijacked your email address and it using it for
spamming. Do any of the email addresses exist in your address book? Most
probably not - again. Get adaware and check your system as well as a valid
complete virus scan just to be safe.

systems(lol) have a virus/trojan.
