Is there anyway of disabling the hover over the word 'News'?

Yes.

Remove the following lines of CSS from Themes > Advanced Styles & CSS > Style Sheet.

#news .nav:hover { background-color: johnnynav_tree_hover_background_color; }
#news .nav:hover > span { border: johnnynav_tree_border_width johnnynav_tree_border_style johnnynav_tree_border_color; border-width: 0px johnnynav_tree_border_width 0px 0px; }
#news .nav:hover .arrow { background-color: johnnynav_tree_hover_background_color; }

I have added my coding for this News Feed to my Beta site.   Why is Welcome our newest member ******* showing up as the first line of the news feed.   It does not show up in my site just my Beta Site.   I copied from the operating site to the Beta Site.

How can I turn off welcome to our newest member?

Would you be able to provide a link to the forum in question so we can take a look?

Yes by all means.    shoutout1.freemessageboards.com/    Now it does not show up on the home page for me less I am logged in, then it shows up?   I wonder now though does the theme I picked or am testing have anything to do with it?   Check if you have time but I am betting it is the theme.

Thanks for checking back, it does look to be a change made to the theme itself. To get rid of this, visit your admin panel then navigate to Themes > Layout Templates. On the next page, click the link for the Home template and you'll see the following at the top:

<script>

var user = '$[newest_user.escaped]';
var forum = '$[forum.name.escaped]';

$("#news .items").prepend("<div style='width: 895px; float: left;'>Hey, please welcome our newest member " + user + " to the \"" + forum + "\"</div>");

</script>

Remove that and that will take care of it
