Contact steam. From what I heard, if you can confirm your identity with the payment option (paypal account or credit card) they will give you back your account.

I would rage if I lost my account, I have pretty much every game released on steam.

you will have to post a picture of the cd key with your steam help # written beside it, your email and something else iirc.

When mine got hacked they were really quick in getting it back to me. All I had to do was send them a photocopy of some ID. After I sent it, they contacted me within about an hour letting me know they had reset my details.

You know there is a new feature that allows you to verify your email address. So if somebody was ever to login, he would need to access your email to be able to change anything

You can speed up the progress on your support ticket by buying Gabe a slice of delicious cake. Unfortunately, this will also delay the release of EP3 by several months.

You have Portal 2 to keep you busy 'till then.
