mod_rewrite is your best option (if you can get it to work).

Look at Wordpress' own rewrite rules and try to copy the form of them 
from there. On my system, the pattern doesn't start with a '/', and the 
replacement contains the 'index.php'. Perhaps you need something like 
this...
   RewriteRule ^somethingpretty/?$ /index.php?ec3_after=today&cat=18
