There are only directories and 1 file: .htaccess provided in this thread in the root directory.

No index.html or index.php in root.

.htaccess file , 3 leading lines are

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^srbijadotokija.com [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.srbijadotokija.com/forums/$1 [R=301,L]



(it is much longer)

Far out...

seems it's IE 11 that was causing failures to whatever I have tried.

Now, my old .htaccess works, new one provided by ForceHSS works as well.

The original problem was that .htaccess file somehow ended up in /public_html/forums/ directory.
When I moved it to /public_html then a totally unrelated problem started happening:
- The laptop where it did not work has IE 11 browser.
- Another desktop, has IE 10 and it was not working there.
- The laptop where it works has IE 8 browser, but that one was not used for testing what was being changed. When I did, presto!

When you guys said "works for me" I should have realized you could be using Firefox or whatever else.

Thanks to all who replied.

The moral of the story could be:
- ensure .htaccess is in the root directory
- try different browser
