Having similar issue as Sym0n (though I am forcing a www, and he's suppressing it), and the suggested fix didn't appear to work. I have a large number of domains pointing to same site, so my forced www code in my main htaccess file (root directory, not forums root) is this:

Options +FollowSymLinks 
Options -MultiViews

RewriteEngine On 

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L]

With the stock recommended vbseo htaccess config in the /forums directory, the www. forcing does not work, and URL's remain at domain.com/forums instead of www.domain.com/forums.

I tried adding this to the top of the htaccess in the forums directory:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} !^www\.
RewriteRule (.*) http://www.%{HTTP_HOST}/forums/$1 [R=301,L]

but that didn't work and caused a server error. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!
