You have bigger problems than that - you have a keylogger spyware on your computer.

 

Do this IMMEDIATELY;

 

Change your passwords - all of them.


THEN, you need to run several anti-spyware programs in case you got a keylogger downloaded to your computer.  Spybot and Malware anti-malware are good and they're free - Google them for the download sites.


THEN, you need to change all of your passwords AGAIN, in case the keylogger had time to send the password change to another computer.

I just wanted to make people aware that if they suspect a key logger, go to a DIFFERENT COMPUTER and change the passwords to everything.  Then, run an anti keylogger, anti spyware, ant virus program.  When you think your pc is cleaned then install an anti keylogger program and use a secure browser such as firefox.
