Hmmm maybe some further reading is required. Here's potentially some helpful info for you on hardening WP, and other experiences with .htaccess hacks that might point you in a helpful direction.

My first thoughts: I'd install something like WP Firewall, to help you monitor any changes in files and easily maintain security on the site. It should email you any time something is changed (can be annoying but it might provide a trail for you for how the site is getting changed).
It might not provide everything you need though, as already stated.
Have you been able to identify how the site is being altered? See if you can find some of the code that is being used and then do a web search for it.
I recently found that a few of our sites had been hacked using an exploit through Akismet - yeah Akismet. It was about 30 websites that got hacked - and the only common plugin was Akismet. So if it's happening over a couple of sites (I see you have a couple) look for patterns (same host, same plugins, same ftp details) and try and isolate the issue that way.

Tanks Alexandru, i will do that.
My host is the one who keeps saving me from this attack.
They adviseme to unistall sucuri pluggin. And look for virus on my computer (althouth i have a Mac) i run the only virus program i could find (dont now if you can tell me another for mac

Hi There,
I previously dealt with 3 WordPress website that have got infected. Installing plugins like sucuri.net or http://vaultpress.com/ could be a solution but once the system is infected those won't necessary fix the problem
Here's what to do:
1. Delete all you plugin and check the theme for malware. If possible reinstall the theme with the original/updated version. See if that fixes the problem
If not:
Backup your database ( or even use a .xml export file)
Backup your pictures (make sure you only keep files with extensions like .jpg, .jpeg, .gif, .swf, .png, .bmp )Delete all your wordpress folder
Reinstall fresh version of wordpress
Reinstall fresh version of theme
Import data.xml or run database import from phpmyadmin
Upload your images.
If the problem persists, make sure your hosting environment is not the cause of the infection. Unfortunately one of my clients had a situation like those and we had to change all his hosting...
BUT: MOST LIKELY ONE OF THE PLUGINS WILL BE THE CAUSE
UNINSTALLING AND DELETING ALL PLUGINS MIGHT JUST FIX THIS ISSUE.

Yes please give me some referrals

Might be best to use someone that has specific knowledge of WordPress security to lock your site down. Plugins generally don't catch everything and certainly do not lock you down from further attacks. There are a few steps that you can take to make sure your site won't be infected through simple scripts and brute force. If you need a referral for a security guys let me know.

i think the plugin is not the problem thats why i am asking information about that plugin.
I have restored the web every two days wich is the time between they can enter my ftp again.
24 up 48 hours the time bettwen virus came back to wordpress and install new archives.
I have change all the passwords, no clue what is happening
-
If you can reload the site via FTP to a state prior to loading the plugin that would be the way to go...assuming the plugin is the problem.

Wordpress Category Archives - Index - but will this cause duplication?
Okay something I am struggling with Using YOAST - but have a recipe blog - However the category archives have /are being optimized and indexed as I am adding custom content to them , then listing the recipes below. My question is if I am indexing the Category Archives and using these to add custom content above - then allows the recipe excerpts from the category to be listed underneath - will these recipe excerpts be picked up as duplicate content?

What sources do you use to keep on top of SEO news?
I want to try building an RSS feed of SEO news... but not wanting to find myself drowning in materials As such, looking for a short list of recommendations for keeping on top of SEO developments – the impetus is that I'm still discovering changes that happened 2, 3, even 5 years ago, and I want to try and catch these things as they happen. Thinking something actually from Google may be on the list, but some of these sources are pretty on top of things! Seroundtable.com also comes to mind. But what do you use to keep informed? Thanks 🙂

Custom Wordpress Theme - HTML5 Outline - H1 display: none
We are using a custom wordpress theme for to help us optimize our webpages. We're trying to structure the webpages so that things are as optimized as possible for our clients. I was wondering if we could get some feedback on whether or not we using the correct page structure across the site. We have set a no-display class on the H1 so that the page title wouldn’t mess up the layout and is placed above the logo and have placed other header tags on the different page sections and added in keyword variations to avoid having untitled sections. Is equal to ? Is there a better way to structure this content? Are we not doing something that we should be or overdoing anything? I guess my main question is what would be the best way to use HTML5 to structure this website?http://estheticdentistry.net
