@BadgerDog -

First - if you have the Lightweight STyule Options add-on installed, try adding this:
$vbulletin->options['dt_separate_sticky_normal_active']=0;
$vbulletin->options['dt_separate_sticky_normal_remove']=0;

to the code to disable add-ons section.

If that doesn't work, try editing the Separate Sticky and Normal Threads plugin for for seperate sticky/normal threads and wrap it in

if (STYLEID!=n){

existing pluginin code

}

where n is the lightweight style ID

As for teh Ads stuff, try deleting teh entire contents of the forumhome_ads_code template in the lightweight style
