Answer:
Here’s how to install phpBB on your iPage hosting account.
Login to your iPage control panel. In the Website section, click on the SimpleScripts icon.
When SimpleScripts opens, in the middle column is the Forums section. Click onh phpBB.
Then click the green Install button.
For Step #1, select the most recent version. It’s already selected by default. Then select which domain to install it on, but select the option WITHOUT the www so people don’t have to type www in front of your domain name. (That’s so 90′s.)
For Step #2, click the ‘Click here to display’ link and enter a username and password. I HIGHLY suggest NOT using admin as a username because it just gives hackers 1/2 of what they need. Make sure the checkbox is checked to automatically create the database.
For Step #3, check the terms and conditions box. Then click the green Complete button.
The script will display a gas guage showing the progress of the installation. 
When it’s complete, your login URL, username and password will be emailed to you. It will also display it on the screen.
That’s it! Now use the login URL to administer your brand new phpBB installation.
Thanks for choosing iPage for your forum hosting.
