Not sure if I'm posting this in the correct section. Anyway, in the last 30mins or so, I have been advised that
my friends & family are receiveing horrible porn emails sent by me. I don't use FB that much as I'm not much of
a social animal. How can I stop this? I have good mind to shut down FB but not sure if that is the answer.

I would be really grateful if you could advise the best course of action?

Thanks

Peter
 
I have since changed my FB password. I have checked scan results from Malwarebytes & Zemana and everything looks to be
in order. However yesterday, I did get these.
PUP.Optional.ASK - 6
Adware.Elex.ShrtCln - 3

I scanned again, restarted the machine and they haven't come back. I will keep checking just in case they do re-appear.
 
What have you done to secure your email account? (I assume they appear to come from one of your email accounts).

At the very least, change the password to a long, strong, combo of numbers, letters (caps and smalls) and special characters.
