    Do you have additional FTP accounts there? Cpanel has a password recovery feature that you can try (unless he changed the email address too).

    If the account is in your name you should be able to explain to bluehost and get it fixed.

    I feel your pain. My blog was hacked a few months ago and before I called Bluehost, I thought it completely vanished. Fortunately Bluehost was great and was able to get my blog up and running in a few hours.
