That only works if the code is at the end. I've seen it injected at the front as well. At best, you will have maybe a 50% chance of it helping.

update:
One thing happened today that also happened at the time the site was first hacked, and only those times.
This was related to playing movies in Aeva media. It shows a plugin required and link to download. Someone clicked it and got a virus warning.. and infection. So much for their security shield.
Last time the site had trouble I also tried using the aeva movie plugin download link. It didnt work playing the movies either. These actions only happened twice and both coincidentally related to virus trouble through SMF/Aeva media.
I know some so called free firefox plugins from dodgy commercial site have caused similar problems.
Not sure if this error is related or not.
