.htacess file causing 500 Internal Server Error

  • My wordpress site is showing a 500 Internal Server Error
    IF I disable the .htacess file, the site resolves (but obviously internal links do not work!)

    The host says the problems is
    “We recommend doing either this, or reviewing the scripting within the .htaccess file.”

    What is wrong with this .htacess content:

    # BEGIN WordPress
    <IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteBase /
    RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
    </IfModule>

    # END WordPress

    I should also have said the site has been running fine for months and I have made NO changes or upgrades recently. The host are denying its a problem on their end.
