I had previously downloaded phpbb and created a large number of forums. I have know decided to use SMF and want to import those forums before our site goes live. I have downloaded both phpbb and smf through FATCOW in simplescripts. Since they are housed at fatcow, I dont understand how to run the convertor? Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Thanks K@ ! On the download portion, do you download zip AND tar.gz AND tar.bz2
OR are they the same in each folder, just different format? Thanks!
They're all the same. :)
