Three of domain names stolen...

I feel for you, but I also hope that you and others will learn from this experience. There is no reason why you should not have different complex passwords for things like your domain accounts. You access these things so rarely that it makes sense to make up some unique alphanumeric passwords and write them all on a piece of paper and file that paper away! Don't keep an electronic copy of this and you reduce your chance of password theft by 99%!!! If you do ever lose your list, most places will email your password or a reminder to the email address they have on file.

I wish you the best of luck getting your domains back.

cheers,
Luke
