Hotmail Account Hacked
I have a friend who's hotmail account has been hacked and it sends emails to all her contacts in her contact list. Any ideas on how to resolve this? Changing the password has not helped.

@AndrewK80 already did that, no virus found. She has a macbook pro so i doubt that it could be a virus anyway. Since changing the password didn't help i think that @erniebeek may be right.
If you have one of those emails you could check that by looking at the details of the mails. There you should be able to find where the mails originated from. My gues is that it wasn't a hotmail server.
Clean the Temp Internet Files and History.
Also change passwords after cleaning up the machine to keep safe.
