trojan or virus

I had messenger beta, which was supposed to have the new security update on
it. How could it when I have now lost my Net passpoert with another address.
It took away my password and then when i went to get my password back, using
my secret question, it had changed my question. The question was:who shot
JFK? I got the answer from google but it said it was incorrect. Does anyone
have an answer as to how I can get back my papport, as I need my email addres
for my work. Contact me at nick14374@yahoo.co.uk

It probably WASN'T a virus. Either a friend changed your info as a prank, or
a hacker got your password and changed your info to be cruel. I wish you the
best of luck, I'm not sure what can really be done. When someone has "taken
over" your account I'm not sure of the proper channels to take...

Chances are that something you have installed may have had a back-door or
something in it that allowed your password to be stolen. It's unfortunate
when this happens, but it is a somewhat common occurrence.
