That's most likely just a google bot. Don't worry about it. They're just looking at a login screen. I asked this question before and one of the support members told me that the "Who's Online" gets updated every 5 minutes. So when it appears as though the guest is browsing a hidden forum he's just staring at a login screen. Hope this helps.

Ok, thanks!

I want it moderators hidden so we can talk about problems with members, and such.

yeah, the bots are just seeing a login screen or an error message saying they dont have access rights to that forum!
