Slightly good news... I upgraded to a Business VPS that supports ImageMagick and the CAPTCHA loads a broken image until it's click refreshed for Internet Explorer, but doesn't function for Firefox or Chrome. My webhost, iPage, says everything on their end is set up to support ImageMagick and suggests its a script or browser issue.

Gizmo, what web host do you recommend for UBB??

P.S.

I think the Installation Documentation here is out-of-date...

Certain "777" permissions crashed the server triggering the following:

403 Forbidden
Server unable to read htaccess file, denying access to be safe
