I’m removing index.php from URLs using the exclude method and would like to know how to keep the ?ACT= query strings working. As you may or may not know, they only work at
<a href="http://www.mysite.com/index.php?ACT=9">http://www.mysite.com/index.php?ACT=9</a><a href="http://www.mysite.com/?ACT=9">http://www.mysite.com/?ACT=9</a>I basically need a way to take all those query string URLs and put the index.php back into them. Any thoughts?

Just don’t apply the rewriting rule to those URLs. The Wiki has this example:
# Fix queries for actions, urls and css in EE
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(ACT=.*)$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(URL=.*)$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(CSS=.*)$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.php\?&%{QUERY_STRING} [L]
