I did dump the private key planning to write it out on paper...
Since the hack I deleted my hacked wallet.dat
then restarted core to generate a new address and made a new passphrase.
My anti virus scan didn't catch anything
Is my NEW address also compromised?
Does it not generate a new private key?

If your PC's server is hacked anyhow, then I guess nothing that is put on it should be considered as "SAFE" tbh.
Btw, as you received some more coins today over your address, I want to know that were they also sent by the hacker only or you sent them to some other address? As everyone asked, did you try to IMPORT/EXPORT your key to/from somewhere else? Because it makes your key prone to getting hacked as it's all online and if not, then possibly there's someone who had access to your PC either through the network or "by personally using it from your space" < (this looks less likely).
Your NEW address is not compromised unless it has a new PRIVATE KEY (yes, it is obvious that whenever you use a new address, it has its own identity or I must say: PRIVATE KEY). But when you know now that you have had been attacked like this, why don't you stop using these services from the same PC (if everything happened offline) and start using it from another PC (not a public computer).
