Changing the "view" color topics....

On the side, we have what seems to be a peachy, orange looking color to show new topics have been posted.

Is there a way to get rid of it once I have viewed the forums for it?

Example, I will open a topic in the Off topic, read it, go back to Off Topic, I see some new posts made, but none interest me, once I leave the off topic, the color should go to white, showing I have viewed the forum....

However it stays orange/peach looking, why? Do I have to read every topic in there?

It confuses me, because I forget and don't know if someone posted something new and I go back to look in the off topic, and I see everything I want to view, is already viewed, yet it does not change to white.

Just wondered how it "Tracks" what was viewed, and is there a way to make it once I have viewed the Off Topic forum, regardless if I actually opened any topics, it goes back to "already viewed" and stays that way until someone makes a new topic or a new post?

Once again, thanks for all you do here.

Click the "Mark Topics Read" box above the "Last Post" column of each section page.

No prob. I'm going to try to make the link more prominent as I think a lot of people have the same problem.
