Yetanotherforums being a pretty good forum made in Asp .Net can get pretty nasty when installing it, especially with iis 7.0
I found a site which describerd a few things on what to do especially with me getting all sorts of security exception, and then after going through that i had issues with sql server.
I still don't know how well it will cope up but it seems to be working.
a few things is required in the web.config file (rename default.config to web.config if this is a fresh installation) and change the yafnet section to look like this
<section name="yafnet" type="yaf.SectionHandler,yaf" requirePermission="false"/>
you may also require the following in the system.web section if you get a lot of configurationExceptions
<securityPolicy>
<trustLevel name="Full" policyFile="internal"/>
<trustLevel name="High" policyFile="web_hightrust.config"/>
<trustLevel name="Medium" policyFile="web_mediumtrust.config"/>
<trustLevel name="Low" policyFile="web_lowtrust.config"/>
<trustLevel name="Minimal" policyFile="web_minimaltrust.config"/>
</securityPolicy>
<trust level="Full" originUrl=""/>
After finally getting through the initial setup screens i started getting sqlClient exceptions.
Something to do with the column name never existed. It was something to do with the database being case sensitive. So i ran the scripts manually and it runs beautifully now.
I will be making the forums live after a few weeks and a lot of testing and setting up the site as it is required to.
I am also in a hunt for themes for this forums, but i assume this will have to be made to fit.

Google chrome
Heard of Chrome yesterday and had it downloaded.
Scaringly, It runs well. For some unexplainable reason it seems faster than Firefox 3 or IE 7.
The interface is different, except with hows its done, the sub menus is directly pointed to the win32 API which looses its feel right there.
There are quite a few features, like it will remember what sites youve been upto, put them up in a set of tiles in your opening screen.So much for some privacy here. Still drastically looking on how to take certain sites off that list. It does have the bookmarks show up in the same tiled screen, which is good.
Has a very web page look, and makes very good use of the entire screen.
Though, there are a few drawbacks -
The tiled screen, it remember where you went. Well now i want it to erase its memory for a certain site.
Facebook, and certaing ajac rich pages freeze up. by freezing ofcouser the ajax scripts cant kick in and nothing happens. So thats when i get back to my IE7 or Firefox3.
I also noticed that the downloads were pretty dodgy. I couldnt download driver from HP's website. the browser threw up and said that the file does not exist in the server. i went and trried a few other files and it all said the same thing. Thankfully i gave it a go on firefox and the day was saved.
Guess the google beta concept makes it easy for them.
Gmails still in Beta !!!! guess thats how it will be
