My Gmail account was accessed by the Amazon EC2 cloud about a week ago. (http://aws.amazon.com/ec2/ ) I have an 18 character upper/lower/numeric/special character password so I'm guessing it wasn't a dictionary attack. "Something" odd is definitely going on. I changed the account password as soon as I was alerted to the unusual IP and have been OK since, but I'm watching the access IP's like a hawk now. An no, I don't use this password for any other web site or application.
Yes, it should read IM, but Google Talk is also a VoIP app as well. And a very good one at that. It also lets you know when you get a new email in your Gmail account. All hail Google...
