Update Apr 2009: Thanks to Alistair Brookbanks at CubeCart for looking and updating the rewrite.script – updated script below.  They are looking to make next major release of CC more Zeus compatible .

I think the pain and misery of Zeus is now behind me and I sat and converted the CubeCart .htaccess into a Zeus rewrite.script in ten minutes.  Previously, it would have involved a minor breakdown and tears.  Anyhow, here it is and I hope you find it useful:

1. Copy and paste the code shown below into a file named rewrite.script
2. Replace example.co.uk with your own site
3. Upload to the root directory of your site
4. Try out the redirect yourself in a browser
