that are plenty of other boards you can get for free

i.e. Ikonboard- QUITE GOOD easy to use
Invision Board- VERY GOOD easy to use
PHP- never used myself, but god layout and again easy to use

lots of others but just did a google search and you'll come up with 1000s

InvisionBoard, at http://invisionboard.com is my favorite and the one I use in my hosting services. I reccomend that if you're going to use a forum at your website, download InvisionBoard 1.1 beta 1 :D

http://www.phpbb.com is pretty good. I like it better than InvisionBoard.

PHP/MySQL forums:
http://phpbb.com - PHPBB
http://mybboard.com - DevBB
http://invisionboard.com - InvisionBoard
http://smartbb.net - SmartBB
http://yabb.info - YaBB SE
http://wotlab.de - BurningBoard (url correct?)

Perl/CGI forums:
http://ikonboard.com - Ikonboard
http://yabbforums.com - YaBB

These I have all used, and are quite good (with the exception of BurningBoard, which I don't like much). YaBB is best if you want to integrate it with another site, there are many scripts to do so. Hope this helps :)
