[color=blue][b][size=12pt]Internal Server Error?[/size][/b][/color]
Please read the following BEFORE you install.

If you get a 'Internal Server Error' message while installing (this happens rarely, but does happen), do the following:
  1. Proceed with installation until "Internal Server Error" page appears. LEAVE THIS PAGE AS IS.
  2. FTP into your account. Look for the folder which has been chmodded to 777. This is typically the root folder of your forum. (eg. /public_html/forums)
  3. CHMOD the directory back to 755.
  4. Refresh the "Internal Server Error" page. You may need to : a) IE - hold CTRL and press Refresh; b) Firefox - hold SHIFT and press Reload.
