If the theme author coded it in to the theme, just find it in the theme and remove it.

You can also change it by creating a functions.php file in your theme folder, and put this in it:

<?php

remove_filter('bb_topic_labels', 'bb_closed_label');

add_filter('bb_topic_labels', 'my_closed_label');

function my_closed_label( $label ) {

global $topic;

if ( '0' === $topic->topic_open )

return sprintf(__('[Read Only] %s'), $label);

return $label;

}

?>

That changes [Sticky] to [Read Only]. You can change the [Read Only] to whatever text you want instead of sticky.
