Just delete the files from the backup (delete them from the site via ftp
too).
Be sure to look in these directories for signs of it:
components
modules
administrator/components/
administrator/modules
The site may not load right on the front end at first but you can log
into the administrator side,
uninstall the component and it's associated modules, and the front end
will work again.
It may complain during the uninstall about the files being missing but
it works out fine.
