Hi. Guess you are right. I got it working yesterday. And you know how?!!
This is just ridiculous!

The tasks take the form of a 1 x 1 transparent gif image loading on the page. So the page should still load, but it will show as continuing to load until the image / task finishes.

So the Cron jobs have something to do with the 1x1 Spacer.gif, which is loaded to your forum via the header template. And the funny thing is that I replaced this gif with a Christmas hat for the holidays. When I removed the Christmas hat your hack started working.
Very weird. Any comments on this issue?
BTW: I Suggest you add info about the spacer.gif into your manual, so people, who use custom styles check that it's in place. It's kinda impossible to think of it yourself if don't know beforehand.
