    Theres no need to replace the database or vBulletin files unless you want to make sure everything is safe security-wise (malicious code are common on nulled versions).

    You will be fine as soon as you get a license, owned or leased, just make sure it points to your forum's url (vB member's control panel).

    Exactly.

    In this case, you are using a pirated vBull license. You either need to pay for it, or remove it. Simple as that.

    I'm not sure if you knew this or not with your lack of license, but this is a simple fix. Buy what you do not own.

    Pointless thread. The obvious solution is to buy the script.

    So vbullentin is a script that the site owner rent? Meaning you have to pay each year or period to use it? Or is there a one time payment option?

    vBulletin (Owned License)
    The owned vBulletin Forum license allows you to run the software on your site indefinitely. Along with this license, you will receive one year of free updates. Beyond the first year, you will have to pay a nominal fee, currently $30, to obtain updates for an additional year.

    vBulletin (Leased License)
    The leased vBulletin Forum license allows you to use the software on your site for 1 year and gives you access to products updates for that year. After 1 year, you must renew your license or remove the software from your site.

    More info at http://www.vbulletin.com/order/

    First of all BIG thanks for all of you guys for ur posts .

    Second , Why PirateReports got banned ?

    I added his email to my messenger and he helped me through the MSN . Now my issue is resolved and every thing is fine .

    But I see his DP account got banned status . I asked him about that in the messanger and he told me most probably its because of his reply to my thread since he does not remember that he wrote other post lately !!

    Actually I feel sham that he got banned cause of his help to me , I want to confirm that The member ( PirateReports ) is not bogus . Also I contacted him at ( *****@piratereports.com ) , and this last email can not be for FREE it must belong to those how represent PirateReports .

    I guess the moderator suspect that his account is bogus because of the msn email that PirateREports posted in the thread ! ..
