U should have chose a webhost with that provides an external firewall dude. if ur host provides an external hardware firewall with your server then get it.If not, i use:

www.hostmywebsitenow.com

click on 'web hosting' then 'dedicated server'.they only provide an external hardware firewall for dedicated servers.scroll right down to the bottom left hand side of the page to see the firewall.

u said u have all ur domains with ur host so u don't want to transfer them. I'm sure u can keep ur domain names on ur current host and have a web server with another host can't u? maybe someone on here can help u with that.

Uploading scripts that allow 'uncommon' filetypes are easy prey for exploits. If you allow a file extension to be uploaded, but forget to assign a mime type, that can be the way in , even to the whole server. An example: If you allow users to upload "corel draw files" (.cdr) and it's not a registered mime type, anyone could gain access to your files.

First of all, have you talked to 1and1?.(Looks like you didn't because this thread is over 1 month old?)

The most common thing what Hackers are doing is installing a so called backdoor on the server where your Site is hosted. I assume you are using shared hosting, so other Users what are on the same server could be affected, too. It is useless to upload a cleaned index file because of the backdoor proggi what is running behind the scenes.

Another idea( just kidding): get in contact with another hackergroup, they could hack the site of the romanians....hacker like to "deface" each other!

So, kick 1and1's a@#, it is a shame that your site is still hacked (Contact me if you want good advice in hosting)

Scares me evry day that a hacker wil beat my securty on my server. As a webhost you have to stay 1 step ahead of them and at times it is tough!

Work with 1 and 1. To late to prevent it, but they can hel in the future.
1 more word of advice...BACK UP<>BACK UP !!

Tip: Never forget to follow the instructions provided in any PHP script which tell you to DELETE installation/admin/config files.
