Who are guest?

No I don't beleive so its a member only site....for instance if you were a member and I assigned you a username and password this would be the steps for logging in.

1. go to homepage www.homepage.cXm <<<naturally this is public and anyone can go to but can access as I have password protected the directory with my hosting company.

2. click member entry link is prompts for a username and password which I have assigned to each member.

3. Vbulletin message requiring user to log in (or register) with his username and password (different than what is used or required in step 2. This is the first time they get to vbulletin software.

4. after they have logged in with vbulletin they are then directed to the forum homepage which is the vbindex page (different then the homepage in step 1) From here they can search forum etc.

I have not only made the site private where it requires you to be logged in with a valid username and password but no one can complete registration and view without me authorizing it in the admin cp.

Therefore I find it strange that I would ever have a guest as they would first have to get past the password protected member entry link and then get past the vbulletin software requirement to enter a username and password before logging in.
