I've looked here at the installation instructions, and here's a question on a hunch.

Forum URL
This is the URL to your forums. This should be filled in automatically, but it is always good to make sure that the URL is correct. Remember that there should not be a trailing slash

Website URL
This is the URL to your website (if you have one). If you do not have a website, you can either leave it blank or enter your forums URL.

My question: Is the url that you put there correct? Please post back here with the exact url (as in exact upper and lower case spelling) that you placed there.

Other than the homepage url not existing, which wouldn't affect this page, it looks like those settings are correct. Please go to your filemanager and look at the content inside index.php. Is there anything there?

Sorry, I'm out of ideas now with what I know and understand. Was the tutorial thread still open? Try and ask what happened there, or go ask support at MyBB's official site. Otherwise, if anyone that sees this thread has more ideas, I hope they post them.

When I look at the page source for http://itcom.x10.mx/Forum/ all I see is:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<!-- start: index -->
<!-- end: index -->

Looking at the page source for one my own MyBB Forums I see over 400 lines of code. This suggests to me that you have a failed installation and should probably try just reinstalling.

I can get in and admin settings just fine however I when I login with admin or any other user it says I'm logged in and it takes me back to the where I logged in and says I'm still not logged in (ie guest account). Any ideas what I might be missing?

It's a cookie issue locally; I have the same issue with my local copy of MyBB. Not a clue how to fix it at the moment but that's the issue - the sessions/cookies aren't staying set. My guess is it's setting it for the wrong domain/location locally so it freaks because it logs you in, stores the session, and then can't find it.
