this is something wich i was looking for its working like charm as it wont create any additional Querys on my home page like TFSEO the other SEo hack does which almost kills my SQL server,

Their is one problem tho m facing in this whenever their is a new post in a thread and i visit the static link few times it jus shows blank page and sometime only shows first post of the forum so i guess u can look into this ?
