Hi there I am going to buy vbulletin owned licence and I have a question.

I am from Greece and I dont own any credit cards or paypal account. I want to buy vb with a bank deposit to your bank account, from my local bank. Which option should I choose for payment?

check??
invoice??
something else??

Please help me I want this software as soon as possible.
Thank you.

and a second thing...

The vb_test returned me these two failures:

Recommended Settings (Optional) GD 2.x Pass open_basedir
Fail safe_mode
Pass GZIP
Pass magic_quotes_runtime
Fail magic_quotes_gpc
Pass pcre.backtrack_limit


Is that too bad, especially the first "safe mode" which says that maybe I have problems uploading to vb. Should I choose another provider?

1. Use the 'wire transfer' option.

2. This only means that you will not be able to store attachments and pictures on the file system. You will have to keep them in the database.

thanks for the answer, but do you know why is that??
php and mysql versions of my provider are in the range you recommend.

I mean who has the problem, you or my provider??

Is there something to do to fix this problem, because i dont quite understand the meaning of your words.

You said that there will be a problem uploading files to vb filesystem.
For example if a user selects his avatar or wants to upload a picture or a file to his post, there will be an error???

Or the file goes automatically to the database and works?

Do I have to make critical adjustments to work flawlesly??

Thank you for your time.

That is because your host has safe mode enabled. This is a server issue, not a vB one.
