I bought my first few Bitcoins in 2012; eventually I got around 100 and managed to hold most of them until this point. Yesterday they were stolen from me. Shortly after I made a transaction, I left my PC with Electrum open, I believe there was a key logger waiting for me to type my password as when I returned an hour later, I saw my account had been emptied.

This happened shortly after receiving my hardware wallet (ledger), which I never got round to filling up. Obviously storing £350k(that hurts to type) on my daily computer was a moronic thing to do.

See the transaction here: https://blockchain.info/tx/220caec53bac39cc1a2d2692eecd385bca796fc1a839254ddd622b911344ae97

The Bitcoins were then split and are currently residing at these two addresses:
https://blockchain.info/address/18JCmLzKQoZydXspc6CPwovWVwYtUT7DCx
https://blockchain.info/address/16YiXuw4eaFVvpyhX7mYufwsj77LHrydUx
https://blockchain.info/address/18ZnbD5JQwdEJRwKrb34nXPu7J6pHN1CMR

I know I wont get these Bitcoins back but if anyone knows of a blockchain or malware analysis service or just want to give me advice, I would appreciate it.

Oh my god!!! You just gave me a heart attack,can't believe this.I feel so sorry for your great loss.My condolences.I would suggest you to never lose hope and keep on trying to search for your stolen Bitcoins.And don't go into depression if you aren't able to find it.If you can earn it once then you can earn it again.
Sorry again for your loss.
I hope you find your bitcoins.
Yeah, If I lose that kind of money, I will be flipping, I do not know if I will go insane but something very close to it, I never had that amount of money in my bank account and that money is a lot in my country so if I lost that, it will be one of the most difficult experiences in my life.
