Could be for example his "computer" compromised? (I am sure he does not use linux).<var></var></div>

<div>Anyway if you could copy me on some "safe restoration procedure" that would be great!</div>

<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"><br style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"></div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important">Just a quick note regarding my recently hacked hotmail account. </div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"><br style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"></div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important">I awoke this morning to receive a spam email from my own account even though it doesn't show up in my "Sent" box. I replied to the email just to see if it came to my inbox and it did. Can hackers duplicate your account? The complexity of the digital realm continues to amaze, astound and totally confuse me!</div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"><br style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"></div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important">I suppose the next course of action is for me to close this account but I have a feeling that it won't really make any difference as far as spam being sent out in my name...arrgh! So apologies in advance for any future undesirables sent out in my name. </div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"><br style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"></div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important">It will take me a bit to do this so feel free to be in touch in the interim.</div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"><br style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"></div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important">I must say that I am a little attached to this account having used it for so long...but the winds of change are a blowing!</div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"><br style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important"></div>
<div style="TEXT-INDENT:0px!important">Much love to one and all and thanks for your understanding!</div>
