John,

I just got notified of your post (I use boardtracker to alert me when someone asks about NBBS )

To install it, simply copy install.php and install.data to where you want to install, then using your browser go to that place/install.php

If your host uses phpsuexec, you may have to do it the old way: unpack the .data file locally using Winzip (on PC), then upload the whole directory structure.

Hope this helps,
-Chris.

I wonder how good this forum software is compared to phpbb or vbulletin. Has anyone used it before?

Oh I see you're using the nightly build.
This was fixed a few days ago; if you download the current nightly build, references to this table are gone.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
