When I click the "Forum Home Page" link at the top right corner within the Admin Control Panel, it goes to an hosting error page because the link is wrong.

The link is to http://www.********.com/forum/upload/index.php

But the link should be http://www.********.com/forum/index.php

Any ideas what to change?

Looks like you added the upload folder instead of its contents to your forum folder.

Check the URLs set in the Admin CP and config.php.

Almost. When I started SmartFTP, it went to start pushing the upload folder but then I stopped it / shut it down / deleted folders from server and moved everything from forum/upload to the root forum folder so the URL would be http://www.********.com/forum/index.php and everything is working and looking great. I have customized the templates to the look and feel I want and love V 3.7.2 - it was just this link being off that bugged me. LOL

I just fixed it. Thanks anyways, my friend.

Check the URLs set in the Admin CP and config.php.

There was nothing there that had the "upload" URL inserted so I opened the admincp folder on the server and reviewed the file "index.php" with wordpad and found the URL with ../upload/ and simply removed the /upload and left everything else and republished that file and it worked!

All is well!

I appreciate your time and hope this helps someone.

I really do love VBulletin v3.7.2 after using several freeware forums, this is a breathe of fresh air!
