Answer
Since the JoomSEF version 1.3.3, there is an update utility provided. You can upgrade your installation easily by clicking "Update" button and the newest version will be downloaded and upgraded automatically for you. The automatic upgrade will preserve your current configuration and all generated URLs.
As alternative or for older versions, you can use the default Joomla!'s component unistall and install utility to remove the old version and install the new. However if you do so, your configuration and manually entered URLs (if you have any) will be lost and you will need to set them again. Therefore you are strongly adviced to backup them using provided utility first. Also you can do the update manually by replacing the files from the distribution package. This is however recommended to experienced users only.
