Replace the sef.php in the /includes directory with the one in the zip file. After that just enable SEF (no need to rename htaccess.txt, in fact, you can even delete it).

Note: Although I have tested it on 3 independent sites, I take no responsibility for any damages caused by the file. I recommend you to make a backup copy before you make any changes.

Note2: The reason I made it was because one of the biggest hosting companies in Estonia doesn't allow .htaccess override.

I tried this file and the only weird behaviour I see is that after logging out (using comprofiler+akologin), I'm returned to ...index.php/index.php

Actually I can live with that. Just needed to ask something about SEF. Once my site url has been added to a search engine successfully, what is it suppose to search? only the content items? How can I check whether my whole site is searched? for e.g. stuffs in the components.. Currently I can only find my site on Yahoo using my url as the search term. Thanks
