I'm trying to run the Simple:Press Data import. It's asking for a table prefix. I don't have a table prefix in my vbulletin database. So, it keeps hanging, asking for it.

You will need to edit the importer script and that should be enough.
In the /importers folder is the vbulletin.php file and down on line 46 is this line of code:
$def->required = 'dbname,dbuser,dbpass,dbhost,dbbasepfix,dbpassoption';
if you remove the prefix option then it should pass:
$def->required = 'dbname,dbuser,dbpass,dbhost,dbpassoption';
Try that....

Okay, that much worked, now we're onto another problem. It got part of the way through the import and it kicked up a long string of errors, here are the first few:

I'm not sure I know what you mean. The forum is not on the root, but in its own directory, /forum. I entered the database un/pw into the importer form. It's localhost. It's on the same server I've just installed wp to. When I go to try again, how can I erase everything that's been imported during this failed attempt?
Thanks!

so both the vbulletin and simple press installs are on localhost?

So you appear to be using a different username/password to access the vBulletin database as opposed to the WordPress database. If the dame user has access to both could you try with the common one - which would be the one set up in the WP config...?

I'd rather not fool with the vbulletin one, I had too much trouble messing with this once already when we were hacked. Any reason I could just change the wordpress one?

You wouldn't be messing with the vBulleitin settings at all. the question is whether the databases are both set up to enable the same set of user accounts and that is a server thing.
I am not even sure if this will resolve the issue as I have no real idea why the issue is happening except I see the username being used. using cpanel you should be able to grant access to both databases using the WordPress config settings and that should help I believe
