Also they were using one of my domains for spoofing, does anyone know if the domain could possibly get black listed by google due to this?
There is no software to keep a server secure, it's an ongoing process.

I would hire a webmaster to check everything out, there is monthly services.

Or mainly, make sure any scripts are updated and any files you are not using removed.

99% of hacks are from php scripts not updated.
