Sorry, guess I didn't make myself clear. I downloaded the open-source version from http://vanillaforums.org/. There's a hosted version available at http://vanillaforums.com, but I'm not going that route.

If you install a secondary app within your Craft directory, you have to tell Craft to ignore all these requests. Just edit your `.htaccess` file accordingly.
