Question asked on Jul 4, 2013
I received an email from someone I knew, Like a dummy I clicked a link. It took me to a womans health magizine page. It then sent wierd emails to everyone of my contacts. I ran a scan. Changed my password and ran another scan. I alerted everyone as soon as I could so they wouldn't be hit.  How do I know if I still have an issue?
