CodeIgniter on HostGator - .htaccess Issue

[eluser]Jay Logan[/eluser]
HostGator is in the process of upgraded all there servers to MySQL 5 and PHP 5. For some CI users, this may cause your index.php removal mod to stop working. A quick fix for this is to open your config.php file and change your uri_protocol to "REQUEST_URI". I found this out and it saved me a major headache so I figured I would pass the info along to you guys.
