Sequrity Issue

My site (coloniahotels.com) has been hacked continiously the last 2 weeks. I
have change my ftp password more than 5 times but still someone is able to
add an iframe (trojan) in my .htm files

I have scan my computer with all major antivirus, antispyware and not any
infection found. From my hosting company initial told me that they had a
issue with a huge spam attack but later inform me that this is not affected
the files (only emails). The confirmed me that not any infection in their
server and that not any other website has a similar problem ( i also have
some other websites in the same server without having any problem )

This morning when i realized that again my site was hacked i turn off the
"write permission to files" and i wait to see what will happened.

I know post is not realted with this forum but i am wondering if anyone else
had a similar problem and also if anyone know something more. The hosting
company told me maybe this is a security issue about the program i use to
create the webpages ( I use publisher 2003 )

If anyone know something i will appreciate its help


Regards
Panos

If your host does not properly security your website, or gives you
permissions that allow you to risk attacks due to lack of security
knowledge...then it's time for a new host.

Are you using Flash animations ? If you do, that's the hackers entry point. I
have had a similar problem a few years ago. Symantec resolved the issue, they
tried different things which only worked for a fortnight or so, but it took
them 9 months to arrive at a permanent solution.

No i do not use any flash animation..The only different from all my other
websites is that i have create a CNAME record pointing to an affilliate ip
address ( but this is one of the biggest brand in the tourist industry so i
dont think the problem come from there )
