You might get the post-counts right, if you go to Admin>Forum maintenance and "Recount all forum totals and statistics", Bob.

I'm not sure that I understand what you're saying about the smilies, I'm afraid. :(

Before the conversion, was the :D emoticon:

Basically, you'd need to write a script that uses regular expressions to match and replace the bad code (pull the post from the database, find the bad code, find the alt text, replace the bad code with the alt text, update the post).
