♥kymation Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 Through .htaccess is good. Make certain that you have a strong password. You can also move your admin to a different folder, or even a different URL. Leave a protected admin folder with nothing useful in it, just to give the hackers something to do. you might also want to read What to do BEFORE you get hacked Regards Jim See my profile for a list of my addons and ways to get support.
