I did another export of the file from my current setup which you can try; it works on my current setup with 3.6.4 and vBadvanced. You may need to change the path in the file if you don't use "/forum/vaispy.php"; otherwise the instructions in the original post apply.

I have the module [quoted in this post] working with an exception - I had to add

<script language="javascript" src="clientscript/va_prototype.js"></script>
<script language="javascript" src="clientscript/va_effects.js"></script>
<script language="javascript" src="clientscript/va_spy.js"></script>
<script language="javascript">
    spymax = 10;
    highestid = 0;
</script>

to the top of the template in order for anything to display. Once done, it worked as described

Secondly, there is a missing tag in the first half of the template

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%" align="center" id="spy_table">
<tr><td colspan="4" class="tcat smallfont" align="left"  style="height:25px;"><strong>&raquo; <a href="/forum/vaispy.php">Live Forum Updates</a></strong></td></tr>
<tr><td width="20" class="tcat" nowrap="nowrap" style="height:25px;">&nbsp;</td>
<td class="tcat" width="190" nowrap="nowrap" style="height:20px;">By</td>
<td class="tcat" width="80%" style="height:20px;">Thread/Post</td>
<td class="tcat" width="200" nowrap="nowrap" style="height:20px;">Forum
</tr>
...

after Forum there is no closing </td> tag. I don't use Opera, so I don't know if it actually hurts anything or not, but I thought I would add that.
