Hello keupon,

 Think, my phpBB 2.0.5 is not vulnerable.
 I posted "[url=www.google.fr" onclick=alert('Hello')]text[/url]" into
 the body of the post. No URL link appeared, but I saw the whole
 string "[url=www.google.fr" onclick=alert('Hello')]text[/url]" in my
 post.

 Was I wrong? Where do we need to place that string?
