Have a look at Bulletin Board software, for example there is a product called 'phpbb'
there is a wiki describing it at [url:30qa4qp0]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PhpBB[/url:30qa4qp0]

So if I was to download the relevant forum software would it run on my supanet hosted website.

Apologies but I have no knowledge at all on running a forum.

Cheers

Download the phpbb and extract the file because it would normally be a zip file, then upload the file to your hosting root directory via FTP. Then brows to that file and install it during installation it will ask the database user name and password which you can get from your admin control panel.
