Code search in all files

[bigskinsfan]

Is there a way to search the code of all files of a site at one time? Currently using WHM/cPanel 11.34.1.
Someone has hacked one of the sites and I need to remove the malicious code. Searching file by file is somewhat of a royal pain.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

There are multiple ways to do that - the following will work:

# grep -ilr "pattern" /files/to/search
