[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1330137, member: 46727"] I doubt you're infected with anything. More likely your GMail account has been compromised and is the launching pad for a SPAM bot. When that happens it's best to ask Google to shut the account down and just create another. Only this time use a strong password. You can have your mail forwarded from your old account to the new one until you get everyone notified of your new email address. [/QUOTE]
