email problem

Hi,

When I try send emails the box has a spam email in it.
This started a month ago when I had postmaster failed to send messages in my inbox. Freiends also said they had received these emails with links in.

I now have to delete it before I write in the box. I am really not good with computers so can anyone tell me what it is and how I can remove it.

Thank you
Life is not the way it’s supposed to be. It’s the way it is. The way you cope with it is what makes the difference.

    Are you using Windows Live Hotmail ?

    If so, its' likely your personal signature has been tampered with.

    Select Options>more options (or just Options) from the Windows Live Hotmail toolbar.

    Click Personal e-mail signature under Customize your mail.

    Remove spam signature > click save.

    And now change your password.
