For your safty I suggest you remove the url from screenshot spys are everywhare!

As to your problem I am unsure what you mean...
if you mean the members, post count etc, you need to install the plugin that comes with the skin

2 possiblilties:

Catagories dont have a parent.....
Goto:
Admincp>>Forums & Moderators>>Forum Manager

open each catagory you have created and under the 5th option "Parent Forum" choose no one

OR


You may have created the forums but not given them a parent...
Goto:
Admincp>>Forums & Moderators>>Forum Manager

open each forum you have created and under the 5th option "Parent Forum" choose where the forums are meant to be

ie: your Grime forum parent should be UK Music

Oooooooooooo I see....

Remember to always make a backup

Replace your "forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost" template with this:

PHP: 
<!-- top -->
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
  <tr> 
    <td width="30px"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_head_title_left.gif" alt="" width="36" height="26"></td>
    <td class="catheadlinks" width="150" nowrap background="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_head_title_bg.gif"><a class="container" href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><strong>$forum[title] <font class="text">$forum[title]</font></strong></a></td>
    <td width="27"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_head_title_right.gif" alt="" width="27" height="26"></td>
    <td background="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_head_bg.gif">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="43"><a style="float:$stylevar[align=right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumbit_$forumid')"><img id="collapseimg_forumbit_$forumid" src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_head_right{$collapseimg_forumid}.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a></td>
  </tr>
</table>

<!-- /top -->

<table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" background="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_forum_bg.gif">
  <tr> 
    <td><div align="left"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_forum_forum.gif" alt="" width="185" height="23"></div></td>
    <td>

<div align="center"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_forum_lastpost.gif" alt="" width="125" height="23"></div></td>
    <td width="173"><div align="right"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_forum_threadsposts.gif" alt="" width="173" height="23"></div></td>
  </tr>
</table>

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" align="center">

<if condition="$childforumbits">
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumbit_$forumid" style="{$collapseobj_forumid}">

$childforumbits
</if>
</tbody>
</table>
<!-- bottom -->
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" align="center">
	<tr>
<td style="text-align: $stylevar[align=left]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_footer_left.gif" alt="" /></td>
<td width="100%" style="background-image: url($stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_footer_bg.gif); text-align: center;"></td>
<td style="text-align: $stylevar[align=right]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/cat_footer_right.gif" alt="" /></td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- /bottom -->
<div style="padding: 8px 8px 8px 8px;"></div>

This is a slightly modded version of the template but shouldnt matter as the only difference is I sorted out and aligned attributes.

If you find the above is out off alignment replace your "forumhome_forumbit_level2_post" template with this:

PHP: 
<tr align="center">
	<td width="30px" class="alt2"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_$forum[statusicon].gif" alt="" border="0" /></td>
	<td width="45%" class="alt1Active" align="$stylevar[align=left]" id="f$forum[forumid]">
		<div>
			<a href="forumdisplay.php?$session[sessionurl]f=$forum[forumid]"><strong>$forum[title]</strong></a>
			<if condition="$show['browsers']"><span class="smallfont">(<phrase 1="$forum[browsers]">$vbphrase[x_viewing]</phrase>)</span></if>
		</div>
		<if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]</div></if>
		<if condition="$show['forumsubscription']"><div class="smallfont"><strong><a href="subscription.php?$session[sessionurl]do=removesubscription&f=$forum[forumid]">$vbphrase[unsubscribe_from_this_forum]</a></strong></div></if>
		<if condition="$show['subforums']"><div class="smallfont" style="margin-top:$stylevar[cellpadding]px"><strong>$vbphrase[subforums]</strong>: $forum[subforums]</div></if>
	</td>
	<td width="36%" class="alt2" nowrap="nowrap">$forum[lastpostinfo]</td>
	<td width="8%" class="alt1">$forum[threadcount]</td>
	<td width="8%" class="alt2">$forum[replycount]</td>
	<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
	<td class="alt1"><div class="smallfont">$forum[moderators]&nbsp;</div></td>
</if>
</tr>
$childforumbits

Try this:

In FORUMHOME template find:

<!-- main -->
<table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

Below that add:

<thead>
<tr align="center">
<td class="thead">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="thead" width="100%" align="$stylevar[align=left]">$vbphrase[forum]</td>
<td class="thead" width="175">$vbphrase[last_post]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[threads]</td>
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[posts]</td>
<if condition="$vboptions['showmoderatorcolumn']">
<td class="thead">$vbphrase[moderator]</td>
</if>
</tr>
</thead>

All i cant think off is to try to upgrade ur vb to higher version and then install style again.

Second thing i cant think off is posibility that the part of the code that should show that line is placed in some other template.

Third - if you have used compression tools to speed up ur board I sugest you to upload original files (clienscript folder).
