Detailed description of your problem, including steps to reproduce if necessary
Well I guess I'll just give a list of what I did in order:

1. Downloaded the files from here: http://www.mybb.com/download/latest
   
2. Unzipped the package to my desktop and uploaded to my server under the 'forum' directory on my root (so it's rdennings.com/forum)
   
3. I edited the file permissions to 666 and 777 as instructed (I use filezilla so I right clicked the files and directories and hit file permissions and edited the number accordingly.
   
4. I type in 'http://www.rdennings.com/forum/install' and that is where my error comes in:
   
   Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting T_OLD_FUNCTION or T_FUNCTION or T_VAR or '}' in /home/denni0/public_html/rodney/forum/inc/class_core.php on line 18

What's your PHP version?

1.6.4

That's MyBB version, I need PHP, it will be 4. or 5. something. Ask your host.

MMmmm sorry about that I misread the post....

5.2.14

Try reuploading all the files.

MMM yup just tried, redid all of the permissions and still same error.

^ are you sure that php version is 5.2.14 ? (see myBB requirements)

Create a file called version.php with the following code in it:

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

Upload it to the root of your server and visit it in your web browser. What version does it say you're running?

MMM I guess I have 4.4.9.... My internet provider told me otherwise... Thanks for the help +rep for you...
