Thanks for your help and suggestions everyone!! I tried the programs for spyware and malware and looks like my computer is clean -- so I guess I have been targeted for a zombie computer

JanAll is not lost, my wife had the same problem and after some 6 months the undeliverable notifications stopped coming.
All she could do in the interim was to install G-Lock to filter out the invalid mail, she STILL USES it to filter spam.What you should do immediately is contact your ISP and report what has happened and request a new account...
