I come on my board and always see 1 anonymous in the Board Statistics and 0 guests. What does that mean? Nobody has posted either.

The major difference (among several others) between a guest and anonymous member is that a guest is not logged in or registered and does not have access to member only features (eg profile editing), while an anonymous member is and does.

Lately from what I know, there has been a bug where people appear to be logged in anonymously even though they didn't set that option, so that may be why you are seeing this.

This happen sometimes when you use different services.

e.g. You used FireFox to access your forum, then you use IE or something else and if you are already logged in automaticaly then you are anonymous. But if you reload you will be back too.
