Spam e-mail received from aunt...
Earlier today it looks like somehow a mass spam e-mail -- basically, absolute gibberish except for a lone link inside of it -- was sent from my aunt to most of the people in our family (I could see the CC list).
My question is, how did this happen, and what does my aunt need to do to fix the problem? I haven't kept up to speed on this sort of thing. It seems to me like she got a virus or some sort of malware that grabbed her address book but I'm not sure.
She uses Yahoo e-mail, by the way, and I think she accesses it from her web browser.
