Its becoming a pain 'cos the account is full of spam.
Yes I do have a firewall and current antivirus. Iv'e also downloaded all Micorsoft patches that the puter prompts me to do.
Any ideas?

I've had this problem with PCCILLIN antivirus, but I usually have the leave copy on server ticked but delete when deleted ticked. When OE thinks the settings have changed it downloads all again. I had to switch off email scanning and manually remove localhost etc from the email accounts, and haven't had the problem since - or used mail AV scanning!
