    The e-mail account was locked and verified through Steam, so I'm wondering if it was a dual hack of both accounts.

    Drunken, do you really think I'm that dumb? lol

    All they would need is the email to hack your steam.

    They probably just still have control of your email account from last time.

    They can have control of it and still make it look like they don't.

    Control of the e-mail account or the Steam account? I changed the e-mail account since the last time.

    make sure that all the security is correct on your email too, in case they set a secondary email to recover the password at. with things like this you really have to go from the ground up.

    securing local computer first (virus scans, firewalls ect)
    next your online identity (your email, anything thats connected to your email in any possible way)
    and finally ending with anything that sits atop the little online identity youve built (forum logins, game logins, pretty much anything you can click 'forgot password' on and have it sent to email)

    pretty much exactly what oza's been telling you

    Yeah in information warfare you can't really do anything when somebody has the drop on you and already has what they want from you.
