First tell us your complete computer configuration.

Second tell us which Operating System you are using and which mail client you are using.

Well, this happened with my Gmail account some days before. What I did was that I deleted all my contacts and changed the password. Everything is good after that.

* STOP using Mail clients until you completely clean your PC from malware. Get KIS Trial from here: Free Antivirus: Trial Versions
* Change the password
* Write a Sorry Mail to all your contacts

Be Happy
