Hi folks,
I am looking for some free forums, only know Ikon board (which most host ban) and phpbb, besides these 2, any other free bbs are avaliable? Are these php bbs difficult to install? To mods, sorry if this is off topic, I am not sure which forum it goes under. Any reply is appreciated.

I tried to install the phpbb before, and gave up only b/c I know how to setup the ikonboard almost by memory. ;)
Those are just some off the top of my head...

i like phpbb that was what i used till i got vbulletin, for right now phpbb 2.0 is the best, ikonboard is good too but not really favored by hosts since it uses a lot of resources (cgi based forum)

Nice list. :-)
This should be part of a WHT FAQ. The "where can I find good/free/fast/whatever forum software" question comes up often enough.
Headsurfer: Have you thought about adding a Web Hosting FAQ to the site?
Take care,
Brian

There's only so many different design combinations to make a forum, I'm sure at least one of them will fit your needs...
I like WBB (Burning Board) the best :)
