someone hacked my e-mail

and sent out spam in my name. I changed my password and sent out e-mail to my friends and family not to open the link.
What else can I do?

I would contact the email carrier as well (google, yahoo, aol, msn, etc). Let them know.
You just can't catch a break this week Celia!

Re: someone hacked my e-mail

change your passwords every three months.
Also, make them with symbols.

ie: if you are going to write let's say a pet name:

'spar#%ky'

Those hackers use words..throwing in symbols helps!
