Is your forum in a sub folder

Yes
I tried

<script src="forum/js/jquery.ticker.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

as you can see:

<!--DEBUT LATEST-->

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.5.2/jquery.min.js"></script> 
<script src="js/jquery.ticker.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="{vb:raw vboptions.bburl}/external.php?&type=js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
<script src="forum/js/jquery.ticker.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
    $(function () {
        $('#js-news').ticker();
    });
</script>
<!--FIN LATEST-->

but nothing change.
