If changing your password doesn't work, then your computer is infected with malware. You need to run both a full virus scan AND an anti-malware scan. If you don't have an anti malware program, you can download Malwarebytes for free. Then delete all infected files. After scanning, delete your browsing history and cookies and empty your cache. Then restart your computer

Change your password. Many of these hackings are a result of people using easy-to-guess passwords. I have seen countless people use their initials followed by "123", and then wonder why someone managed to figure out that [email protected]'s password is JD123.
