In your config.php, you have to set mod_rewrite to false (not true or slugs):

$bb->mod_rewrite = false;

Your server does not support pretty permalinks, at least not as it’s configured now. You can figure that part out later (if you’re on godaddy, it might never work.) But for now, to get a working forum, change mod_rewrite to false and your links will work.
