Thats to do with phpBB. The forum read setting is changed when you visit the forum and not when you read all the theads in it. All the threads should still appear unread.

I get that problem from time to time aswell. There would be a few threads unread so I would start reading one press backspace and they would be all read. Dunno whether that makes too much sense, i'm just awake. :)
