I am completely lost when it comes to step 5.  I have tried everything to navigate to the folder on my website. 
 
I keep getting error messages saying forbidden and page cannot be displayed.
 
I am completely lost as to what is causing this and I have no idea how to move forward....
 
Any help is greatly appreciated!

If you turn off friendly HTTP errors in IE you will get an accurate error message.

It then looks like the first one is the path to your forum:-

http://www.activities4elders.com/activity-pro/forum/

However, it shows the error that it can not find an include file. This suggests that you haven't upload the forum correctly to the server.

When you extract the files from the zip file you need to keep the directory structure intact you then need to keep the files in their correct folders when you upload them to the server, for example includes files need to stay in the includes directory, images in the forum_images directory, etc.

Thank you for the quick reply.  I deleted all files and uploaded again.  Now when i try to navigate to the folder http://www.activities4elders.com/activity-pro/web_wiz_forums_access2000_v8.04/
 I get this response:

Directory Listing Denied

This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed.
 
Any ideas?

It doesn't appear you have uploaded the files, if you have not to that place.

What you need to do is upload all the files from the zip file found in the 'forum' directory keeping the file structure intact.
