Redirect SMF index.php?topic* to a single 404 page

I've just upgraded from SMF to vBulletin 4.1.0 Suite, and most of it's working great but there's one thing I can't solve.

The old SMF links all look like /index.php?topic=11785

The new links don't tie up at all and the upgrade involved merging back in a couple of different databases, so there are no import id's left that I can find (yes, saw that script a bit too late!)

What I want to do is redirect all of those old SMF links to a single 404 page which explains why it's broken.

I wondered about an htaccess redirect, but whatever I do, any links which include index.php keeps redirecting back to forum.php.

What I am missing? Is there a vBulletin redirect that is overriding my attempts? Any help would be much appreciated!

Victoria
