As we all know, when viewing Who's Online, a number of "Guest" appear in the list. The majority of these "Guest" are spambots.
I have denied access to all areas of my site to unregistered users and users awaiting email authorization. Those users are stopped from accessing the areas of the site.
While viewing Who's Online, it continues to show Guest in locations such as Searching Forums, Searching Profiles, etc. I presume these are the bots, correct? If so, are they actually able to view details in those areas or are they met with a "stop" message, in my case instructing to login or register.
Thanks!
