Default Uninstalling vbSEO - Rewrite issue

Hi folks. I'm in the process of uninstalling vbSEO and am having trouble getting my .htaccess rewrites to work so that my old links are still valid. Here's a link to an old vbSEO'd post:

Code:
http://www.metalguitarist.org/forum/general-music-discussion/65644-vinces-new-album-embers-ares-out.html
It just dumps me at the main page, instead of where it should land:

Code:
http://www.metalguitarist.org/forum/showthread.php?t=65644
Here's my whole .htaccess, with the comments pulled out:

Code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule [^/]+/([0-9]+)-[^/]+\.html http://www.metalguitarist.org/forum/showthread.php?t=$1 [L,R=301]
I followed the instructions here and best I can tell that should be the rewrite rule, but any old links just get redirect to my root domain.

Any insight would be awesome - if I'm missing something simple, my apologies. This has been quite the process and I've read about 100 threads on here about uninstalling it in the last couple of hours, so my eyeballs are starting to cross..

Did you solve this? When I go to the first link you posted above, I seem to correctly end up at the second link.

Works here as well.
If it still doesn't work for you then my guess is that the redirect is cached in your browser, simply clearing your cache should fix it.

I did, thanks guys. Turned out to be a borked character in the .htaccess that I didn't catch. The culprit was my perpetually crappy vi editor skills.

Cheers!
