The update for phpbb came out a while ago, and it looks like the ports were updated on 11/25/2004. Have you tried updating the ports? I think this is already addressed. On a side note, I'm suprised you didn't get hit by the worm (unless it happened before the worm came out). There is a new worm out now that attacks some weak php programming, though it's not very widespread. See http://www.syslog.org/Article10.phtml for a little more detail. I don't know if it's a worm or not, but I'm seeing people trying to attack my site pretty frequently lately.
