Email virus

Options
Hi , I seem to have a virus in my email.
I am getting 100s of emails every day in my inbox from mailer-daemon@yahoo.com.


It goes on to say " sorry we were unable to deliver to this address" followed by lines of gobbledygook .

Help please.

    if changing the password solved it, then nothing else needs to be done, unless you use that same old email password on any other website in the internet, in that case change them all so every website has it's own unique password.
  • Yeah that seems to have done the trick. Thanks for the help.
