Trouble Enabling Clean URL on HostMonster Drupal Setup

Hi all,
After spending all day with this I FINALLY got this working!:)) I am with Hostmonster btw and have two drupal installations on my site (each in subdirectory of course). What I did after trying out several different things and reading a bazillion posts was copy the required code (which I will paste in below) into a .htaccess file and then placed a copy of it into each of my drupal installation subdirectories. You can either create a new .htaccess file on your local machine or copy the one that is already at your root on hostmonster. Please ask if you have any (BASIC) questions. I am still a newbie at ALL of this stuff since I just started w Drupal a month ago. The way I get things working (like all of you:) is by reading post after post after post:)
