    What kind of help do you need?

    About the forums, it depends, phpb is not that bad, but vbuletin is better. The problem is it's not free!

    Converting from phpbb to VB would be hard or complex...

    VB is far superior but since staring to write my vB/phpBB/SMF plugin ICo-Content (shameless relevant plug alert) I got a good look under the bonnet on all three and can highly recommend SMF as a great free alternative. PhpBB is ugly, not coded as nicely as SMF and feels outdated. Go vB if you have the money or SMF if you don't.
