    I've checked everything - banks etc and nothing else has been touched. I did a bit of digging and another way in is a script piece of software which looks for ebay passwords which are dictionary words.

    You can't do a dictionary crack against an on-line resource such as that, as they lock you out after a certain number of tries.

    Unless your password was guessable within the three or so goes ebay gives you of course, or you use it on some other website that was cracked.

    definitely not a guessable word. Maybe it was on another website which was cracked.

    Don't forget to make your email password very secure. After all - it's where all the "I forgot my password" notices end up.
