Untested, but you'll most likely have to modify the following part of the code:

PHP Code:

    $xforum_ids = array_keys($vbulletin->forumcache);
    foreach ($xforum_ids AS $key => $xforum_id)
    {
        $xfperms = & $vbulletin->userinfo['forumpermissions']["$xforum_id"];
        if (!($xfperms & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_forumpermissions['canview']))
        {
            unset($xforum_ids["$key"]);
        }
    }

    if (empty($xforum_ids))
    {
        $xforum_list = "0";
    }
    else
    {
        $xforum_list = implode(', ', $xforum_ids);
    } 


Since that's the part which defines the $xforum_list var that controls the query which counts the unread posts.
