HI
 i seem to have 2or 3 "guests " on my forum all the time now !!The other day when i asked about this i was told they were Spy Bots and would not be a problem
 Before the upgrade we never had them at all .. My permissions are set to deny guests to go all over the forum .. But i notice they are there all the time practically now
 Can anyone throw  ant light on this for me please
Thank you
kathy xx

Kathy, if you look at the guests ip addresses you will notice that they are almost always the same ones.  If you track them, they come back to Yahoo, Microsoft, Google and a couple of  others.

They will do your forum no harm and they will help bring members to your forum.
