Eek - Email Address Hacked

My Yahoo email account was hacked, again.  It doesn't look like too many emails went out, but its troubling regardless.  If there's a bright side to this its that the thief was a hacker bot--they never change your password--so I was able to slip in and reset everything.  

This is the second time that this Yahoo account was compromised.    Both times it was used to make BS posts to various Yahoo groups. I find it funny that there's a whole sector of crime devoted to hacking and spamming Yahoo products.  Somewhere, somebody's reporting that an abandoned group has one more link to buy knockoff handbags and getting paid for the effort.

My account had a unique password and I rarely use it, so I wonder if I screwed up and entered my login information in a phishing attack, if my computer has a virus, some kind of man-in-the-middle attack, or if a larger hack exposed my credentials.

So if you got an email from my account, I apologize. If it happens again, I may just ditch Yahoo altogether.
