Change host, add .htaccess to admincp and modcp, use strong password, use your brain.
 
Well it all depends how they got in. Sounds to me like they got in through ftp or you cpannel. Change the password and make sure there is no ftp accounts set up that you havent authorized, and if there are ftp accounts you authorized have them change there passwords to.
