    Need help from a programmer.

    I got a website for me and some of my friends but recently some hacker attacked it.
    I was hoping some one could write me a small command line program that will look trough all files in a folder if they contain a certain string and if they contain it remove that string.

    I am a beginner myself in programming and I got no idea how to do this.

    Code:
    $ for f in $(find .); do
    >    mv $f $f.tmp
    >    sed -e 's/<CERTAIN STRING>//g/' < $f.tmp > $f
    >    rm $f.tmp
    >done

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.
