    Can anybody recommend me software free software to build a forum with? I need to have adsense build into the forum, is there a such software available? If not, any commercial one with decent price, like vBulletin? Thanks.

    If you are looking for free then phpBB is best in free family.If you are looking for paid one then vB is best in paid family.
    You need to apply some tweaks to free family boards for better SEO.

    Another free offering is Simplemachines Forum. You can get it here:
    http://www.simplemachines.org/.

    Personally I would choose Simplemachines Forum over phpBB.

    I think simple machines is a distant 3rd or 4th, but it's good they are continuing to improve. Hopefully, they will one day give phpBB some competition. Actually, I think phpBB finally decided to get off their *ss and strart working on 3.0 again. They had a pretty big shuffle of programmers, but just recently did a massive security audit, and 2.018 contains many improvements to security.
