No need to change the name of config directory. just protect it using htaccess.
Also, Vbseo removal is a nightmare for many forums depending on your urls but I agree removal is the best thing to do. I believe it will not be long for Google to actually prove Vbseo type scripts as bad for search indexing. It seems like weekly they are adding new restrictions. The latest thing is to target and penalize sites that have too many advertisements. It is only a matter of time before seo friendly type urls are completely ignored in my opinion.
Also, if you are using an older version of Vbseo you better find out how to secure it because it has a vulnerability that is easy exploited.
