Seems tht someone is using my email (Hotmail)address to
send junk mail possibly containing viruses. I have changed
my password with no luck--I keep getting messages that I
have sent inappropriate emails, from various sources. What
should I do?
 
There is probably nothing you can do, short of changing
your email address. Your password has nothing to do with
it. They are probably sending the spam with your email
address as the return address to hide their real
identity. This is really common among spammers.
 
They're not actually using your account. They're just making it look like
the messages are coming from you. If you look at the SMTP headers of the
actual e-mails you'll see that they're sent from servers others than
Hotmail's.
