Those were simply a few potential examples. The possibilities are 
pretty much endless, including ones that are nothing to do with your 
computer such as your email account, Amazon account, Farcebook account, 
etc. being hacked at the server end (it has happend to Yahoo accounts 
at least a few times), but someone "hacking" the files on your Mac is 
pretty much the bottom of the list.

You'll never ever know exactly how it happened. The best thing to do is 
to change all your passwords.
