I'm looking for a good forum style thingie to set up, and would like to know what everyone recommends.

So far, I've poked into:
PHPBB[1]
VBulletin[2]
KBoard[3]

I'm not really sure what my requirements are, other than that I would prefer it to be written in PHP and use MySQL, but I'm open to other options. I guess I'm wondering what everyone else out there has used, and why they liked it.

Thanks!

I use phpBB and despite the frightening reports of security breaches, it is a very good system, imho. The phpBB development team usually has fixes very quickly for any problems. I personally would not mind if they took what they know about forums and started from scratch and made something that is XHTML and CSS 2.0 compliant. However, it is a fine product with an enormous and responsive community.

Where you are using it internally, security should not be a concern, and if it is, you need to rethink who you are hiring.
