Read This --> XSS ATTACK INFO

You can read about the technical xss info here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-site_scripting

Many things can be done to protect your site some more than others depending on whether you have a shared host or full control with vps or dedicated server. If you have a shared host you are a little more limited to what you can do for security. Not that this is bad, and if you are not sure what you are doing this is actually probably good. Leave all the complicated server linux administration to the techies.

You can still deny ips, prevent rfi remote file includes, some .htaccess modifications to some 777 folders, review your logs, check your 777 folders often, monitor activity, and more.

I would read some of mscott's blog entry's and many of his forum posts. He has posted a number to both that offer many tips for security that should be taken serious.
