Default Am I being paranoid?

I have a new stealth account and all was going well as I was only opening it in a new windows profile with a different IP address etc (a usb modem stick thingy)

One day I logged into the Gmail account for my stealth account on my normal PC, the one I use for my 'normal' eb and pp and saw an email from pp (I have pictures blocked as suggested in the Stealth Book).

The email was asking me to confirm my details and I clicked on it, it then asked me to enter the password to log into my stealth pp account.

Fortunately I realised that I had almost logged in with the wrong computer and IP address and so didn't enter the password, I just closed the browser, but was it too late? Am I being paranoid?

I have tried lifting the limits and the sending limit has gone but they want ID for the receiving limit but then they wanted that when I tried to lift the limit on my legit account so I'm not worried about that.

Also, can pp get your IP address when you open one of their email addresses, even if you don't reply to it etc?

Thanks

Double check every time that you are in the new/correct user account.

Double check every time the IP's.

Copy and paste the URL instead of clicking on it if you can.

Everyone makes mistakes but what is great is once you make a simple mistake you wont do it again.
