What I would be looking for is an initial PUT where the guy just used ftp to get in with no real hack attempts(already knew the pass)
I'm asking the host to provide logs. And also how many other sites on their server has got the same problem. Because it's not just me, they let me in on that much after they finally realised I wasn't having a whinge about nothing.

I don't use the same password. But as I said, it's across numerous sites across their server.
