    Doesn't sound much like a friend to me.

    You can change the MySQL root password from either the shell or from WHM quite easily. However if he does have any skill then he's likely to get in based on your apparent lack of server administration knowledge.

    Depends on him. Since your friend is a bad boy, there are a lot of chances

    To prevent him from doing it, reset the password of mysql database via ssh.

    like Jeff - Exceed said, in your WHM there is option to change the mysql root password, change to new password.

    hope that helps
