How can I change url in this way using htaccess:
http://example.com/page.php?go=something.php
should be redirected to:
http://example.com/something
If the get parameter name is different than 'go' leave as it is...

This should do:
# Assuming that "RewriteEngine On" has already been called
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*&)?go=([a-z]+)\.php(&.*)?$
RewriteRule page.php %2?
What happens here? First, RewriteCond matches a query string that contains the go=something.php, where "something" is captured by ([a-z]+). Then the RewriteRule uses the second capture group's contents from RewriteCond, containing "something.php". The question mark at the end gets rid of the original query string.
Note: if you want to preserve the rest of the query string excluding go=... parameter, things get a bit more complicated.
See the docs in http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_rewrite.html for more info.

something like this (google around for the correct syntax)
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^page.php?go=login.php /login [L]

The downside of using this,
page.php?something&go=login.php doesn't work, and it's still valid on page.php?go=login.phpjunk

google around for correct syntax and how to get around those problems. e.g. add $ after login.php to prevent login.phpjunk from triggering
