This version of MySQL should be ok, however we recommend later version of MySQL, the primary reason being the fact that old MySQL releases have some major bugs when resolving & using indeces.

It means that some queries may run slower because old MySQL will not be smart enough to use indexes. That's all, this MAY be a problem on a very high traffic forum.

gotcha - won't be a high traffic forum - probably never will. I'm gonna go for it! Look for me again soon as I'm sure I'll need some more help later! Thanks for the info!!
