Simple, the number of compromised PHPBB installs I have had to fix over
the past 6 years. Perhaps you should use google and see the major
vulnerabilities that they have had? Hell even PHPBB openly admit they
don't have the best security history but you are obviously a fan boy so
won't bother to look it up.



Here's a simple little comparison:
phpBB3: http://secunia.com/advisories/product/17998/?task=advisories

vBulletin 3: http://secunia.com/advisories/product/3212/?task=advisories


Would it not be more appropriate to compare against the CURRENT version
of VB which is version 4? Nice marketing tactic though, next.

Where is your comparison against IPB? I mentioned it also. In the spirit
of full disclosure here is their listing also:

I do not see the benefit of even having a forum so we are even.
