well you should escape the '/', like:
sed -e 's/<h4 class="post-title"><a href="http\:\/\/ 
tuxvermelho.blogspot.com\/2006\/08\/bourne-shell.html">Bourne Shell<\/ 
a><\/h4>/<!--/'

works for me. [1]

you could also substitute '/' with '$':
sed -e 's$<h4 class="post-title"><a href="http\:// 
tuxvermelho.blogspot.com/2006/08/bourne-shell.html">Bourne Shell</a></ 
h4>$<!--$'

then you don't need to escape anything except there would be a '$' in  
the text....
