Did you get some sort of an error when you were attempting to delete the forum?

Just checked there was indeed a bug with deletion of forums.

I've patched the affected file, the fixed version is attached to this message.

The forum not comming up is the result of an un-released table lock, the solution is 2 part. First you need to modify GLOBALS.php and change the "MYSQL_PERSIST" option to 'N'.
Then you need to do 1 of the following:

* Restart MySQL
OR
* Restart Webserver
OR
* Kill MySQL threads attached to your forum database using mysqladmin utility

well, I had already done step one

but step two is not something I have ever done....

I doubt the host would let me do #1

not sure what you mean by #2

#3 I could telnet in and issued the mysqladm command but got the following error

connect to servier at 'localhost' failed
error" 'Access denied for user: 'acct351@localhost' <using password: MO>'

will it close on it's own in time?

Eventually but you can still use mysqladmin perhaps you need to give it a different host?

I checked on a few computers and MySQL does allow you to kill your own threads...

You can see your own threads by running the followin command inside MySQL client:
[code]
show full processlist;
[code]

It will show all your sql connections and what are they doing at the moment.
