uhh... the only configuration it stores is in the MySQL database you made for it, so delete that to get rid of all the configuration/posts/etc :p

Well thanks,

when after I delete my forum, can I use the same mysql information to get WordPress?

Deleting Files
Delete the MyBB folder! It's just that.

Deleting SQL Data
Go to your phpMyAdmin, and select your database.
Delete all tables that matchs your prefix, for example,
when you install you select mybb_
Then you have to delete mybb_adminlog, mybb_adminoptions, ...

You can also use the same database without uninstalling MyBB :).
