I noticed that too. phpBB has been used for many sorts of tricks.

The ISP that I work for scans for it and support follow a prodecure to
warn the customer that it has been disabled. (chmod)

An easy way is to change:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

to:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml

Most php packages come with .php files, and people that use them ususlly
don't have the nouse to alter all the files and links thoughout the
package.
