Anyone have any thoughts about web BB software, and various advantages/disadvantages/costs of each? Obviously, our good friends at 2+2 publishing like Infopop and UBBthreads 6.4.2 (see the bottom of this page). WowBB? Others?

Thanks in advance.

Not the one this boards uses, that's for sure.

phpBB is OK, and free with most webhosting packages.

phpBB is nice, but it is targeted by hackers a lot more...

Because you were looking forward to plugging in your old 9600 baud modem and dialling in?
