Looking for good open source forums....

Hi.
We are looking to add forums to multiple pages in our website. We want
our profile pages to each have a forum similar to the one found on
MySpace profiles (in the MY Friends space where they can leave messages
for each other). Our web designer said this would be very hard to do,
so we are trying to find an open-source forum that would be similar.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

To be more helpful, you could include a link to a well-written
authoritative reference for the use of Usenet.

You could have read the signature of my article, and then you might have
realised that I actually posted two, the first being of indisputable
merit.

You could have said "Read my signature for links" because most people
ignore sigs.

In my newsreader, a properly delimited sig is in a pale purple color.

People silly enough to presume, without reading the whole body of an
article, that the article is incomplete are inept and unworthy of
attention.

That is your problem, not mine; and it is for you to fix it. A bad
workman blames his tools. Post in haste, regret at leisure.
