I've updated the site to vBulletin 4.1.7. This doesn't add any new features, it looks like the vBulletin team was focused exclusively on fixing bugs.
That said, upgrades always risk introducing new bugs--let me know if you find them!

Not a new bug (I noticed it on last version, but don't know if it comes to prior than that), is that the forum collapse buttons -- the ones to the right of each forum name on the front page -- don't seem to work. It's no biggie, but thought you'd want to know. I can see some potential for their use on mobile devices.

Thanks for the report. I think this won't be a major issue for most mobile devices because of the mobile style, which doesn't have the collapse buttons.
I did look into this, but I wasn't able to figure it out--other people have who this problem typically find it related to the configuration of forum parent-child relationships, but ours are fine. I'll keep an eye out for other possibilities though.
On the Today's Posts page, you used to be able to click the 'Replies' text in the 'Replies: Views:' box to see who posted and how many times in each thread. No idea if that's because of the upgrade or was previously disabled though.
@adeyblue That feature is new to me--I don't know of any setting that controls it. I wonder if it disappeared in the upgrade from VB 3 to VB 4?
