When posting your problem, do not run and post a ComboFix log. ComboFix is a tool that should only be run under the supervision of someone who has been trained in its use. Using it on your own can cause problems with your computer. Any posts containing CF Logs will be ignored.

To receive help, you should instead provide a detailed description of your problem, detailed word-for-word error messages that you are receiving, screenshots of strange behaviour, and your operating system. This information is much more useful to our helpers than a ComboFix log.

I seem to have some virus or malware that has hi-jacked my outlook address books and is sending out e-mails. They do not appear in my sent file in outlook. I discover it has happened when it finds several addresses that are bad and they get returned to me. I have tried Avast, Norton security, malwarebytes and spybot S&D. They don't not find anything. Any ideas?
