What does this modification do?
This modification will allow you to automatically have more search engine friendly URLs in your vBulletin. A forum which would normally display as forumdisplay?f=1 will now appear as f1-forumtitle.html and the same with threads. Having keywords in your URL can be of an advantage in search-engine ranking.
Requirements:
You must have mod_rewrite apache module enabled on your server. Contact your host for more information.
This will not work well for non-english boards as it strips most non-alpha numeric characters. E.g. ? would be stripped on french boards etc

He already responded, there is no query to uninstall, it's in the plugin manager... browse for it and uninstall then remove the .htaccess edits...

If it's not showing up in your plugin manager (which I have no idea why), then I can't offer you much more advice. I don't know the table structure of the plugin table offhand, but someone who does can offer you a query like:
[sql]
SELECT pluginid FROM plugin WHERE name LIKE '%SEO%';
[/sql]
Which will give you the IDs of the plugins you want to delete. But the above query will not work as I don't know the fieldnames. If someone can provide that then I can offer assistance in removing it
i've uninstalled this, it's been a month and no search engin I've found has my links as the thread-title-name.html
it's a great idea, but doesn't work, at least for me

Im starting to see results after about a month, you have to remember that search engines dont update straight away, click the following link then replace with your domain to see
@Dean C, I'm not sure I read this before in the thread. I just noticed now that when attempting to change a language inside a forum or thread the lang param is pushed to the end after the .html:
It's the same with any additional get parameters applied to the URL. They cannot be parsed using mod_rewrite. I think I may have a way around this, but i'm a little overloaded with work right now, so won't do for a little while
