Two options:
1) If your ISP has a phpMyAdmin, then use it to delete the table, and then install the module
2) If your ISP doesn't have phpMyAdmin, then edit the /sql/mysql.sql file and remove the part related to creation of 'xoops_extcal_cat'. Of course, make a backup of this file, so once you've done, you can restore it back to the original state.

I don't think so. Please email your logs to: security [at] xoops.org and explain why do you think it was done via direct access to admin.php
It's as if the hacker didn't even need to login to be able to access admin.php. Is it possible to forge a cookie that would bypass authentication?

You should get some anti-virus software for your browser, e.g. the free software from AVG.
You should also run a "Search & Destroy" on your PC, to make sure that those viruses are not on your PC as well.

I didn't work with the "backup" module, so I don't know. Normally most ISPs provide phpMyAdmin, which can be used for backups too.
On your 1st answer, does deleting everything mean logging to ftp and reinstalling XOOPS again all over?
Yes

as the hacker may have had access to my database password (from teh mainfile.php), do I need to reset teh database password?
Absolutely!

Will installing the backup module be enough to backup the database now and restoring after reinstallation of making sure its the same version of php and mysql?
