You cannot prevent them from looking at topics.  You can however, set permissions for guests in your admin panel.

Members--Permissions--Select "Modify" next to guests.

From there, you can set what they can access.

how do you set it so when they go to the forum, all they see is the thing that say "You must be a registered user to view this", or whatever it says.

Sorry you can't. The feature has been removed to allow your forum to be rated better on search engines like Google. Consider it a good thing ;)

Actually, I have mine set that way.  I just made it so all permissions were denied by guests.  So no guests are allowed to look at anything on my forum without either logging in or registering ;)

In the TOS it says guests must see 1 board, so I show them the portal.

Restricted what guests could see, and made a generic board for them to view and post comments on..
