What's the problem?
Just pick one, and install it on a test site. If you like it, install it on your live site.

I've not looked at the hacks for phpBB, but most hacks come with instructions.

$full_url = 'http://www.mydomain.com';
// You can change the format of date and time here...
// For American type dates you probably want to switch the 'd' and 'm', 'M' or 'F'
// You can also make your own formats, as long as you use the syntax of PHP's function date()
// Of course, do not add or remove any quotes! (unless escaped)
$date_formats = array('d/m/y', 'd/m/Y', 'd/m/Y H:i:s', 'D d-M-y', 'D d-M-Y', 'D d-M-Y H:i:s', 'l d F Y', 'l d F Y H:i:s');
// Array of possible bullets
// You can add your own bullets if you want.
// Do not add or remove any quotes! (unless escaped)
$bullets = array('-', '+', '>', '›', '»', '°', '*');
//
// End Config Section - nothing needs to be modified below...

There is an install.txt file in that zip.
## Author Notes: In my eyes, this isn't really a MOD, more an ADDON, because there is no## need to modify any of phpBB's files.
## You have to configure topics_anywhere.php itself though. Just open it in
## your favourite PHP editor (or notepad) and change whatever is necessary
## in the "Config Section". Just read the comments in the file to guide you.
## When you've done that, place the files in the appropriate directories, then
## point your browser to topics_anywhere.php and follow the steps...
##
## Topics Anywhere should work with phpBB 2.0.0 (not tested), and does work with
## phpBB 2.0.1 (tested), phpBB 2.0.2 (tested) and phpBB 2.0.3 (tested). The code
## generated with earlier versions of Topics Anywhere can still be parsed by newer
## versions of Topics Anywhere. Only if you want to use new features, you should
## go to topics_anywhere.php again to generate a new code to copy and paste.
