I've removed your link so that you won't be giving away any senstive information.

I highly suggest you redownload vBulletin and reupload it. Also make sure you are editing the .php files with notepad or wordpad.

I get this error: Configuration: includes/config.php exists, but is not in the 3.5 format. Please convert your config file via the new config.php.new. and I have 3.5.2

Are you editing config.php.new accordingly to work with your database and have the correct settings and then saving it as config.php?

Now here's the error: The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please confirm the values entered in the 'includes/config.php' file.

Please confirm that the values entered in the 'includes/config.php' file are correct.

how do i know if they are correct or not?

Well if the installation works - then you know it they are correct.

If you are getting an error - that means that what you configured config.php does not match what you specifically have set up on your server.
