Having some problems with the Forum

Hm ... still having problems, but now I have this ... "facelifted" banner thingy on the left side of the screen, which does sort of distract from the forum. Is there a way to remove this^?

Not that I can find. This new "feature", ostensibly "news", is implemented as HTML table code rather than as a more traditional frame. Thus you cannot use browser add-ons like Firefox's Adblock extension to strip the side pane away. I guess we're stuck with losing roughly 140 pixels (at 1280 res.) of our browser window's width to advertising.
