When someone logs on to your forum on the log in page they have the option of ticking a box that hides them from the active users list. This way noone knows who they are online.

I didn't like this on my forum so I hid the tick box from them in login_user.asp.


Look around line 269 (at least on mine) for this line:

Just set the input type to hidden as I have done above.
