    Run a scan with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware free https://www.malwarebytes.org/

    Disconnect from Internet after MBAM updates and starts the scan.

    If you have the slightest suspicions that your email account is compromised, change the password IMMEDIATELY. That would prevent anyone that tried to hack it from actually using it to do anything or lock you out of it.
    Use a known-safe computer, not the compromised one. That way you make sure that a potential attacker doesn't gets the new password as well.
