It might not be a problem but ive just received 2 email address which before opening them looked like i had sent them but they had been returned due to the address being wrong, so i had a look and 1 of the addresses it tried to send a mail to is an address i have sent an email to in the past and the other address is one thats logged in my gmail account. Im running avira now and ill run malware bytes and super anti spyware, also a hijack, anything else i could do

i would have done that except i logged into my gmail last night via the laptop, i think i sorted it last night though as malware bytes found alot of adware and stuff0 -
Google have an issue that they won't can't address.
I have a gmail account firstname.surname@gmail.com, recently someone with the same name as me (which is strange because my surname is unusual) registered firstnamesurname@googlemail.com.
I get all his email.
Could you be suffering the same?It's taken me years of experience to get this cynical0
