Go into the member's area, find your forum under License Details and Options, press Download vBulletin 3.x, and keep the first selection selected, which is, Download Latest Version 3.8.7 Patch Level 3. After you download the .zip file, extract it, and then upload ALL of the files from that zip onto your forum root via FTP. Make sure you overwrite all existing files. After all of the files are copied over, run the upgrade.php script in the install folder. Go through all of the steps in the upgrade script, then your forum will be vB 3.8.7.

Actually, depending on when you bought your license, you might not have access to 3.8.7, but still have access to 4.x. When vB moved on to 4.x, they continued to make upgrades to 3.8 in the meantime. If you're licence expired during that stage, you could be in a situation like I am, where I can download 4.0.3 Patch Level 8 on down, but when I get to vB3, it skips on down to 3.8.5, and then I can download anything below that. No 3.8.7 for me.
