Did you install the forum in a non-root directory or a separate directory?

Hang on....

This url leads to your 2.0.2 forum

http://www.freeadvertisingforum.co.nz/index.php [nofollow]

but this:

http://freeadvertisingforum.co.nz/ [nofollow]

(without the "www") shows something else  ??

So are you sure you're not running different things in different sub folders or root ?

Also, are you using the "www" in your urls as there's also inconsistances there as well ?

Or have you got index.html files in root as well ?
