Forum Software

Hello;

I'm looking to set up a discussion forum on a hobby site.
I'd need something that could handle multiple threads, linking between threads,
& let people link in images but not host them.

Something an admin could have some level of control over.

And as a hobby site using some sort of freeware software.

Specificly a shared fiction site constrained to a prechosen topic.

Does anyone know where I could find such.

I have a rudimentary understanding of Perl and know Java; so I could maintain
something requiring those skills. Unfortunately I'm not at the level were I
could create it on my own.

I've had experience with WWWboard from Matt's Script Archive a few years back
but found it not up to the task of multiple threads and displaying in an orderly
fashion (it displayed all and not just a 'last few days' listing).
