Problems logging out of Passport

OK, I have been having repeated inability to log out of hotmail, by clicking
"signout."
It produces a screen that displays a red "x" next to hotmail meaning it was
unable to log out.
I have a suspicion that my account may have been co-opted by someone, as my
computer
has alerted that the certificate is not recognized and i received an email
from an acquantaince
that suggested I had sent them something I know I hadn't.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Change your password and your secret question immediately.
Do this regularly!

Try logging in on a different computer to do this, and see if you have the
same results.
If you're unable to access your account at all, and it's a free hotmail
account, you're out of luck - you'll likely just have to create a new one.
