GD is used for pictures thumbnails.

Register globals is used in order to avoid some hacks.

Anyway, you will be able to run a icy phoenix board without having that requirements.

I have a doubt.

Once i have upgrade to Icy Phoenix, i have to restart my phpbb DB. Then, can i restart it if i have used DROP TABLES option in my backup?. I ask this because i don't know if the upgrading modifies some tables or not.

I hope you understand me, i have to improve my English. :-)

Bye.

You haven´t got to drop tables.

Just follow instructions:

In the step 12, when says "Upload all Icy Phoenix files ...", does it mean also to the folders?. I supose yes, but it's no clear.

Thanks.
