What is a Malware attack

After wasting a week of my life cleaning up from a Malware attack I have been told;

The happen by forcing the FTP password

Then by weakness in the web design (but no explanation on what exactly.

I would have thought is would be easy to defend against multiple attempts to log in...

I was also told that the attack could come from the uploading or home computer but but anti virus and Microsoft's malware program failed to detect anything.

If it is a password problem is it true that

usealongsentenceasaspasswordinbetterthan

HgtSd55^&8

that it is the length is the stronger PW?
