Our auto-installer scripts have been updated to Joomla! 1.5.9. This means any new Joomla! hosting accounts will have version 1.5.9 automatically installed, including pre-configured Search Engine Friendly URLs.
This is an important security release that fixes a number of bugs and a high level security issue that existed in previous versions. All users on versions below 1.5.9 are urged to upgrade now. Full details here:

Search Engine Friendly URLs are an incredibly important feature for any website. Even though enabling this in Joomla 1.5 is a relatively straight forward task many users either don’t understand the significance of them or do not have the confidence to change their configuration file and set up the necessary mod_rewrite rules.
To help our customers build better websites and to relieve them of some unecessary hassle we have made an important improvement to our Joomla installation service.
As of version 1.5.5 all Joomla Hosting orders will be pre-configured with search engine friendly URLs enabled. They will work out-of-the-box without the need for any further configuration. Simple!
So instead of your URLs looking like this:
/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=19&Itemid=27
they will look like this:
/joomla-overview/what-is-new-in-1-5
They are easier to read and will give you a search engine ranking boost. Nice!

Joomla! have brought out yet another release hot on the heels of 1.5.4. Joomla 1.5.5 (named ‘Mamni’) fixes a duplicate title error present in 1.5.4 and addresses a number of bugs including one affecting search engine friendly URLs.
All Joomla 1.5 users should upgrade to 1.5.5 as soon as possible. Any new Joomla hosting orders will now get version 1.5.5 installed.
