Thanks for posting this. I just changed my Ebay password and wonder if I should change my Paypal password also. I know that it says there's no evidence that it involved Paypal also, but are they really sure about that?

I think it's important to change ALL your passwords, everywhere, every few months or so. The way things are going with this hacking b.s., I'm now thinking of putting a freeze into effect with the 3 credit bureaus. I'm getting really sick of this. {#emotions_dlg.mad}

Somehow, ebay is not accepting my new password information. It asks for my current password, then the new one. It doesn't "take". Don't know what I could be doing wrong. Current password - new password. Simple. Not working.

Log out of ebay, then Log in with your email, then click for your password to be reset. They will email you a link to reset it, and instead of putting in existing one, put in a new one, worked just fine for me.

I'll try again.
