500 error after install

I want to install xfilesharing Pro into a sub directory "/vids".

I copied the provided cgi-bin files and folders to my cgi bin folder in my public_html directory.

I copied the htdocs files and folders to a sub directory "/vids" (instead of root public_html directory).

I pointed my browser to /vids/files/index.html and got 500 error.

Error log:
[Sat Aug 23 21:02:58 2008] [alert] [client 66.31.240.237] /home/xxxxxx/public_html/vids/files/.htaccess: RewriteRule: cannot compile regular expression '^down/(.+)/(.+?)$'\n

This seems to be in the htaccess in the /files folder NOT in the htaccess in the htdocs folder.

What's the fix?

In htdocs/.htaccess try this rule:

Using version 1. I get the same error:
[Mon Aug 25 06:22:42 2008] [alert] [client 66.31.240.237] /home/xxxxxx/public_html/vids/files/.htaccess: RewriteRule: cannot compile regular expression '^down/(.+)/(.+?)$'\n

This htaccess code looks like it is in the htaccess file in the "/files" folder, not the htaccess file I just schanges (with version 1 and version 2).

Note: I put the htdoc into a sub folder "/vids", as I want xfileshare pro to be in a sub directory.

I'm having the same issue, that fix does not work for me. Can anyone help me? I sent an email to support yesterday. This is kinda urgent, my site doesn't work!

Thanks
