so you're saying you have a illegal copy of vBulletin? :eek1:
you need to convert the db to the format of whatever forum you are switching to. Doesn't matter if you have access to the members section or not, vB doesnt have scripts that allow people to convert OUT of their format. Why would they do that?
What are you trying to convert it to? Look on their homepage for conversion scripts.
