Click "Go back"

and put in the first one box "MyBB" and the second "MyBBUser"
and select ALL Privelages.
Press "add user to db".

6) By this piont, you shouold have uploaded your copy of MyBB to the directory of choice, for more information on FTP, contact your FTP client's official suport or a forum made for webmasters (i recomend wm-talk)

7) Once you have uploaded it (see step 6Wink) go to "the_directory_you_uploaded_to/install/index.php"
