I just got back my account back 2 days ago from when it was stolen on Monday. I log in this morning and its gone again. Ive scanned my Computer for malware and things like that but so far nothing.
What could it be?
(I changed my previous password too)

Anyone?
change your password, secret question, email the works.
If you can't keep your password from being given out by YOURSELF, you deserve to have it stolen.
And what makes you assume he was the one who gave it out?

If you mean things like fake steam-powered.com links then yeah. I never use the website anyway.

Your clever.
Change secret question, the email it's linked to, and make it a brand new password you've [B]never[/B] used before
My god OP, proofread before you post. You keep repeating yourself.
Proof reading wouldn't help, he's just not the greatest with the finer points of constructing a paragraph.
Contact steam support, usaokay.
Make sure your computer is malware/virus free. That could also be an issue.
Is your email confirmed?
So only some one who has your email can get your new password.
