Robots File

Hi all, I have imported from VBulletin and had a couple of questions about the Robots.txt file.

Firstly I am using the redirects script for VB4 to redirect threads and forums and my URL's are working perfectly but I am wondering whether the redirect will tell google that the link has moved vs thinking it is duplicate content i.e 301 redirect?

Second I am using the below robots file and was wondering whether this is acceptable and whether there is maybe a reason to not block any of the below or maybe even things that are missed?

I got this from the sitemaps mod...

Code:
User-agent: *
Disallow: /account/
Disallow: /help/
Disallow: /login/
Disallow: /lost-password/
Disallow: /misc/style/
Disallow: /online/
Disallow: /recent-activity/
Disallow: /register/
Disallow: /search/
Disallow: /admin.php
Disallow: /index.php?account/
Disallow: /index.php?help/
Disallow: /index.php?login/
Disallow: /index.php?lost-password/
Disallow: /index.php?misc/style/
Disallow: /index.php?online/
Disallow: /index.php?posts/
Disallow: /index.php?recent-activity/
Disallow: /index.php?register/
Disallow: /index.php?search/
Disallow: /admin.php
Allow: /

Cheers!
