Mine is vBulletin, I find all the built in features it has excellent, and with the wide range of 3rd party mods/skins etc a great addition to the best forum software :p

It also depends on your budget. I have used vBulletin, phpBB. SMF, myBB, and a few others and I have enjoyed using all of them. The ones that I prefer to use is phpBB for a low income site where I'm not likely to receive lots of money from advertisements and such, and vBulletin on business like sites that need that more professional touch.

To be honest i have held licenses for both IPB and vB and i enjoyed both equally. But i recently began to use myBB forum software and i love every minute of it. Lightweight and easy to use.

I like vB as paid & SMF as Free.
Sorry for PHPBB, it is disgusting in its feature, security.

vBulletin is my favorite. It is one of the best pay for softwares I have ever played with. It is secure and has tons of mods available.
SMF is good too.
About two years ago, I opened a forum and used vbulletin. Before that I had no idea why it is so expensive. However, after trying it, I understood that NOTHING ELSE can come close to vb. It was so easy to install and setup the forum, that it took me about 20 mins to do that.

I love vBulletin which is my favorite. I also like phpbb too.
I like both IPB and vBulletin. :)
I use IPB for more community based/general forums and vBulletin for professional/webmaster related forums.

As others have said, it really depends on your budget. If you have a fairly large budget, go ahead and buy the vBulletin license, but if you have a small budget, invision power board is always good, same with SMF(i think its free:D).
