IPB is the second-best forum software I have ever seen (vBulletin is the number one, none of other softwares WILL best it). Even though it takes some time to customize the forum but once you have done, what you get is awesome.phpBB is known for a lot of security issues (other free forum softwares are much more secure). Also, the mods for IPB are extremely good, they can integrate nicely with each others too while phpBB's can't.IPB is your friend if you have enough money to afford it.

Whos, a seriously-infected PC. Same as you guys, I am really happy that the mentioned computer is not mine :rolleyes:A lot of stupid toolbars that we never use are in their and the "real" space for Internet is way too small. Opps, I don't want to think about it.The best way to solve the problem would be formatting the hardware and start all over again, I believe even the best security software can't battle against that many spywares.

I highly recommend Kaspersky (The latest version is 7 , right ?). It is one of the best Anti-Virus software in the market today. I am not really sure about NOD32 since I don't have much experiance with it.I have of course tried both of them in the past and the one I chose was Kaspersky, it has a really powerful protection that most other softwares can't beat.NOD32 is good, too, it doesn't take much CPU resource.If you are seriously annoyed by viruses/spywares then Kaspersky is your best friend. Otherwise, NOD32 will come in handy :rolleyes:This is just my personal opinion, anyway I hope it could help you.

It still allowed me to finish the installation anyway.But in the admin panel there is something wrong with the installer (I can't remember really much since I removed Mambo from my account).Also, I have just looked at the bridge you mentioned and that was Joomla Hacks' component. The lastest version 2.0.2 was released a long time ago (Around February) so will it still work with the current SMF 1.1.4 and current Joomla as well ?Another question, do you know about a site which has good comparison between Mambo and Joomla ? Are they identical ? I can't seem to find that information anywhere.Thank you very much for your help, vujsa

1.I am using Mambo because it can be bridged with SMf (The bridge with Joomla has been discontinued)2.Yes, I am sure I have got everything 777 like it said 3.Thank you for letting me know Yes, I am getting this error at the configuration screen (Actually, it is the pre-setup or check-requirements screen. I did read your suggestion and really appreciate it, but the reason why I am still using SMF because of its feature in version 2.0 , it is unbeatable and it has way too many cool add-ons that I really need. Thank you for your help. Any suggestion on how to fix this ?

CHMOD the file ? Which one are you talking about ? Can you show me how to use/edit the .htaccess in this case ? Actually I have never even heard about the file php.ini before so I don't know how to deal with it. Thank you very much for your help.

Today while I was trying to install Mambo, I had problem with the Session Save Path setting. Everything else was green except that. It always said "Not Set, Unwritable". After that, I tried searching at Google and found something about cinfiguring php.ini file in order to make it work. I haven't even heard of php.ini before so I don't know how to fix it. Thank you very much in advance. PS : Here is the link where I found the php.ini thing forum.joomla.org/index.php?topic=962.0 They were talking about Joomla but Mambo is much similar.

Shouldn't this topic be in the tutorial forum ? I don't think it is alright to put it here.By the way, back to the topic, It is a pretty nice tutorial (It is better than the document at http://www.simplemachines.org/ , the first time I read it, I couldn't understand anything since at that time, I was completely new to these things )Installing through Fantastico is not recommended, it may not contain minor (or even major)bug fixes and sometime there is a problem with the version it has.Thank you very much for sharing

Than how about an IPB forum's footer not linked back to Invision Power ? If that footer is not linked does that mean that copy of IPB is nulled ? For example please take a look at http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ 's footer (The word Invision Power Board is not linked back to Invision Power like Xisto's). My friend told me that if not linked then that forum is 100% nulled but I am not sure if he was right or not. Please reply.

I tried the code you told me but still showed the same site without any number or "Nulled by..." . What should I do next ? Also, their footer is not linked back to https://invisionpower.com/ Now I can say their URL is http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ Please tell me if that IPB is nulled or not

Sorry but what if I don't know if they buy it or not, what should I do ? How about vBulletin ? Is there anyway to realize its nulled version ? Thank you.

I need your help, I have seen some suspicious forum using IPB and vBulletin but don't know how to check if the softwares they are using nulled or not. Also note that I came there as a guest or maybe a member so don't tell me to do something like "In the admin panel, there will be...." . Thank you very much.

I just got my site suspended here because some stupid thing I did. After that , I tried to search the net for another free web hosting instead of just stand there and crying and yes , I found one and I am sure they are the best Free web host ever. Why ? Because 1.They have two plans like Xisto : a)Small plan : Must post at least 10 posts in their forum and after that post 10 posts per month b)Big plan : Must post at least 20 posts in their forum and after that post 10 posts per month 2.The following are featured with each plan : a)Small plan : 5 GB of Space 30 GB of Bandwidth Same features as Xisto and all unlimited cPanel Your own Domain or Their Subdomain No ADs b)Big Plan 10 GB of Space 50 GB of Bandwidth Same features as Xisto and all unlimited cPanel Your own Domain or Their Subdomain No ADs Note : After you have used 95 % of your disk spaces and/or bandwidth , you can request for upgrade with will raise 1 GB per request (You can make up to 5 requests , that mean you can have max 15 GB Spaces and 55 GB Bandwidth). 3.Instantly setup , no need to be approved like Xisto 4.Only 10 posts monthly (That mean if at Xisto , you get 3 credits per day) There you go, if you want to check out, visit {Site Name Removed} Notice from jlhaslip: Advertising competitive services on this Free Hosting Site is not allowed.Link removed.
