    I suspect someone has hacked your password somehow and been sending bot emails using your PC as a host. try changing your password for your email account. using a stronger password with both upper and lower case letters, numbers and special characters as well. #,!, or @. that stopped my problem when it happend to me.

Personally I use AVG free edition for antivirus which I suggest after using housecall. I also use CCleaner and clean the files and registry every other day to keep the computer clean.
