Still hacking problem with Webhosting UK servers

Hi James and Henry

My site has just been hacked again. This is a horrible experience. This is the fourth day in a row I experience major downtime with your service due to hacking. I'm really disappointed, and the security breach has still not been resolved. Many customers are affected, and you keep promissing that the obvious security problem is solved.

Currently this screenshot is again all I see in my site:

Mine hacked again too, even though the anonymous IIS user account has read only access. What the hell were the admins doing? Certainly wasn't of benefit to the customers.
