You are going to have a lot more problems if you don't change it to something more like this:
Code:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php?/$1 [L]
This version only rewrites urls that do NOT point to actual files or directories. With your version requests for images, pdfs, css, js, etc will all get sent through CodeIgniter, which is not what you want.
EDIT: IN other words, you would have to alter your htaccess every time you want to add a directory to your server.
