Hi guys, my mother isn't very tech savvy, so now she's faced with this problem.

Someone or something is using her email account to send junk/spam messages to her contacts.
These messages only contain links like
Code:
http://creditandrepair.info/(censored).html
OR
http://estherhavens.com/store/wp-content/themes/(censored)/(censored).html?xhcf=(longstring)
I know in someway her account's been compromised. But I'm not sure if it's just someone having the username and password to her email account,
Or her laptop has a virus.

Help would be loved
