[support] Clean URLs

[sander-martijn]

try creating your own .htaccess file in /htdocs and make sure it has 
write access and then enable it - drupal should then rewrite that file 
wiht the required information.  If there already is one, then just make 
sure it is writeable.  If not, ask the host's support whether using 
.htaccess files is supported - it may not be and that's required for 
clean urls (as well as mod_rewrite being enabled).
