I would stay away from burning board. With their last release they had a call home function, a form of spyware.

Actually, vB has a call-home function when you install, as well. I wouldn't call it spyware. It's to prevent easy access with pirates, with is a problem with vB.

mairving: wbb is not a spyware nor does it have a call home function (unlike vB)
NightWalk8r: get wbb and then go to http://www.wbbhacks.com and from there, register and go into (I think) Beta Hacks to download the *board your using* to wBB hack (that well convert your current board with whatever your using (phpbb, IB, vB, etc.) to wBB). Just be sure that you can find the right covertion or it might not work.
