Securing Joomla! installations

MY JOOMLA WAS HACKED! the tech-support on my host company said they used a hole in my Joomla 1.0.13 admin login in order to inject some malicious program. my question is: I tried to put an HTACCESS password protection in the ADMINISTRATOR directory. It worked, but i have a comment module that uses a script inside the administrator subfolders. is there a way to tell the HTACCESS not to protect a certain subfolder?
