Is there a built in Forum to PHP-Nuke 8.0?

[happyperson]

Hi All,

I want to install a forum (message board) on my PHP-Nuke based website. I have PHP-Nuke 8.0. I had a few questions.

1. Is there already a built in forum that I am unaware of I can activate/enable? or is this available as an add-on only or extra that I have to download into the CMS first?

2. What do you recommend if I need to download one? PHPBB? YABB? or whch ones are best?

3. Which ones are the most adsense friendly if I want want google adsense on the left and right sides of the forum and not in between posts?

I very much would appreciate any input. I'm totally new to PHP-Nuke and CMS's. Thanks so Much

According to this page:
http://www.siteground.com/tutorials/phpnuke/phpnuke-forum.htm

phpbb is built into it. I've never used phpnuke though so i'm not sure how it works.

I have used phpbb though and didn't like it, it just attracted too much spam for my liking.
