I would just like to point out that it is impossible for an addon to be a keylogger, as it is just a collection of text files. As long as you installed the version on this site, and did not find some .exe version of it, Carbonite did not cause your account to be hacked.

I would also like to point out, that 99% of the time, your account information was collected as much as 4 months prior to it being used for nefarious purposes. Always be wary of where you visit, things you download, public computers (or those of people who aren't so savvy in computer security), etc. And keep up to date on your virus scanner's definitions and computer scans, and update your versions of java, etc. when security holes are patched.
