    you should have a backup option in your cpanel control panel..... that will compress everything, email, databases, files, etc... into a tar.gz file so you can download it from your home directory via FTP....

    if that option isn't there, contact your host, and ask them to turn on that option....

    in the cpanel control panel:

    Backup -> Generate/Download a Full Backup

    just hit "Generate Backup"


    it will send you an email when it's done, then you can FTP in and download it....
