I think I will be OK as I have taken an extra step that some may find to be helpful. I am using VMWare to run a virtual Linux installation from inside of Windows. This way I have basically created a completely clean OS to do all of my eBay dealings from.
In the worst case scenario, if I did receive a cookie from opening that e-mail, it will never be linked to my IP because I'll be in Linux whenever I log-in.
For extra protection, you can install the user agent switcher extension into Firefox so that your browser will always appear as IE6/Windows XP to eBay.
Those of you that still have problems after following all of the guides directions may find that using a virtual machine could be the answer. My new account was opened hours ago, I will keep you updated should it happen to be suspended.
