It's called ultimate bulletin board and it's made by infopop. It's prettymuch the bb of choice, w/ two shortcomings. 1) in the latest version it changed from letting you search by member name to member number (this sucks), 2) it doesn't spit out postcount files without hacking so to get lastpost you either have to actually hack the perl for ubb or write a script to tail the forum topics and get the first few numbers from the last line (tail -n 1 000003 (I forget the extension right now). There is ubb light/lite (which this may be) so take a look at infopop.com ....only don't tell them you saw it here.
