You have your forum set so guests are unable to view your forum, but there is still a guest still showing up? That mysterious guest is most likely a Google Bot. Don't worry about it, every forum will have a Google Bot visit their forum.
What does the Google Bot do?
It scans your forum and it helps to have it listed on Google.
Some of you may want your forum to stay private and not want to be listed on Google. Do not worry about it, a Google Bot can only view the content that a guest can see. Sometimes it may not be a Google Bot trying to view your forum, it may be a person. All they will be able to see is what guests are able to see too.

Nobody knows. Trust me though. They are nice prizes.
