Instead of adding another htaccess to my step by step guide. Here is the customized htaccess to use with dbseo while using VB4. This htaccess assumes that your forum is in a subfolder named forum. If that's not the case then you will have to edit this line to match your installation.
RewriteBase /forum/

Code:
# Author: Final Kaoss (aka: Extreme-Gaming)
# Version 3.2
# Special Thanks Goes to W3Total Cache for much of the htaccess rules
RewriteEngine on
Options -MultiViews
# This file is only needed if you have set the Forum Component URL in your admincp and you are
# using the mod_rewrite option for friendly urls.  If this is the case, copy this file
# to your forum component stub directory.

# If you are having problems or are using VirtualDocumentRoot, uncomment this line and set it to your forum component directory.
 RewriteBase /forum/

# If you are having problems with the rewrite from content/ to content.php, uncomment this line to turn MultiViews off.
# Options -MultiViews

#DBSEO

RewriteEngine On

# If you are having problem with "None Could Be Negotiated" errors in Apache, uncomment this to turn off MultiViews
# Options -MultiViews

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(admincp/|dbseocp/|modcp/|cron|mobiquo|forumrunner|api\.php)
RewriteRule ^((archive/)?(.*\.php(/.*)?))$ dbseo.php [L,QSA]

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !/(admincp|dbseocp|modcp|clientscript|cpstyles|images)/
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ dbseo.php [L,QSA]

You can keep the following line

Code:
RewriteBase /forum/
default to
Code:
#RewriteBase /forum/
Because most of the people wont be keeping in a sub folder

This helps with caching, gzipping and helping with server performance. Have a look at my guide linked in my signature for much more details.

After answering a pm, it still shows that it is unread and displays the notification. This happens since I use your .htaccess, what's the problem here?

I would appreciate your help

That could be your issue. Your cache time may be set high. I remember someone, possibly ozzy47, posting about vBOptomise interfering with some mods like vBOptomise.

After deleting those lines

Code:
    AddType text/html .html .htm
    ExpiresByType text/html A3600
it seems to work
