Every now and then wwwforum.mdb locks up (wwwforum.ldb) the only way I found to unlock the database is to restart the server.

An ldb file isn't a lock file. It's a tracking file to monitor who is doing what in the db. It can get out of sync if you have a lot of activity, fail to close connections, or to many concurent requests.

If bouncing the server fixes the problem, it's likely that it's a ms access problem, not a forum problem. If you're running 2003 server, make sure you have the ms access paches installed.
