Joomla/SMF hosting

I have a SMF forum and Joomla site that is a non-profit for artists. Since starting the sites almost a year ago I have been hacked 5 times. The first 4 were just the index page, but this last one was a lot more and also got the main Joomla site.

I have suspected that one of them was done through the hosting site and I know for sure that the last one was. I have put my savings into these sites and cannot afford to keep fixing these things. I could really use some help in finding a reliable hosting service.

The only reason I have stayed with my current host this long is the help the owner has given me with getting my sites back up (even though it was his fault at least once).

This is what my current stats are for the forum. (note that I lost a lot of images during this last hacking)
Disk Space Usage 99.52 Megabytes
Bandwidth (this month) 886.29 Megabytes

The main site, which is not integrated, I don't have reliable stats for because the site is still messed up from the latest hacking.

Ok, how about if I just ask this. Can I hear some positives and negatives about 1 & 1 hosting?

If you want to read about 1&1 feedbacks you'd be better to use WHReviews.com for this purpose.
