Here is a modified xml (Valter help yourself to the code)

Turn off the option for show link - the tab will always show.

@Valter - Please note the navbar template hook you are using for the link will be deprecated in vB4.2.1
There is a Jira on this http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-15085

I give up, uninstalled.

after upgrading to the past 2 versions my forum shows 1970 as the date rules are accepted on all new users

Rules accepted: 1st January 1970, 11:00 AM

I do not have vbseo installed on my forum.

I will however try to disable all the other mods which are not many and see if this fixes the problem.
