Don't know whether this has been answered already, but I achieved it with the following...

In vbshout.php, find the function "bbcodeparser", and specifically the following code in that function:

        if ($vbulletin->options['shout_bbcode'])
        {
                return $vbulletin->vbshout_parse->parse(convert_url_to_bbcode($text), 'nonforum');
        }

Replace with:

        if ($vbulletin->options['shout_bbcode'])
        {
                $text = preg_replace('/\[\/?(img|size|quote|html|code|center|spoiler|anchor|link|blockquote)(=[^\]]*)?\]/', '', $text);
                return $vbulletin->vbshout_parse->parse(convert_url_to_bbcode($text), 'nonforum');
        }

As you can see, I've removed a whole bunch of BB codes - just add or remove the keywords as necessary. Brackets and options etc for the codes should be handled automatically by the regular expression.

Hope it's self-explanatory.
