check your .htaccess for permission restrictions on your admin folder it looks like a deny rule is affecting it.

 

Edit:  If it's not in your .htaccess then you might want to check your folder permissions as well. 

 

for file permissions in general here is a good starting point:

Also getting a FIM(file integrity monitor) and decent AV / Malware scanner is a good idea.  A FIM will give you a heads up when things have been changed and you can check and fix any changes.  As for AV I run with sophos but thats only because its default on my hosting.

Is you alone have access to your FTP and cpanel? if not, please check your local.xml inside root/app/etc/local.xml, and make sure the admin url is not changed into some thing else.

 

Or, did you try to access with yourdomain.com/index.php/admin
