Oh, btw, I HATE the fact that hosting companies just want money! I should say some. Some have free services which is so awesome. They really care!
Hugz and Kissez to everyone!

Rep Power: 0  | Hey Jenna,
One I used to use that is fully customizable is snitz forums, it is programmed with asp and uses an accesss database. its really a nice forum with lots of mods.
If you need a place to host it, I can help you out.

Rep Power: 0  | Hello
I would recommend Invisionboard provided your server has support for PHP.
Snitz is asp based and therefore is more orientated around windows based servers - it also has its fair share of security holes.

Rep Power: 0  | depending on what type of site you are running I normally provide free hosting for some of my clients (beginner package) in exchange for advertisement.
If you are looking for a board use invision board stay away from phpbb if you plan to have alot of users. I program and see alot of vulnerabilites in phpbb.

Rep Power: 7  | Thank you all for your help! Someday I wish I had a vbulletin, but right now...I just can't pay that much. LoL.
I am planning to buy a domain sometime with php and cgi...that way I can have a message board.
I'm still looking for a host, though.
Well, thank you again.
And if there are any more suggestions, please share them!

Rep Power: 0  | YaBB Try YaBB, Yet another bulletin board.
It is perl, it's free, and is very highly regarded. It is also open source software so it is frequently updated. http://www.yabbforum.com/
