It5 depends on the forums' style. Is it fixed or fluid? A fluid style with expand with each monitor res. A fixed-width style won't.
However, no vB forum will fill the entire screen. It's not coded to do that.

You look like you have a Fluid skin and it is expanding to fill the screen just right. And when I shrink my browser window, it scales down appropriately.
The only time I noticed a problem where you have horizontal scrolling issues, is where there is a picture that's wider than the screen or browser window.
Otherwise, everything looks like it should to me.

Even your portal page fits the screen nicely. I'm running 1024 x 768 resolution, btw.

Maybe you could post a screenshot of where you are seeing the problem. Because like I mentioned, it looked good to me when I checked it out.
