On the member list there is always a member with the name of Guest and has a negative amount of posts.  I tried to delete this member but it doesn't seem to be able to let me.  Anyone got any ideas on this?

thats the guest account. You can turn off that accout in the admin section.

The guest account is for the people not logged in.

If you are referring to "Guest Posting", it has been turned off for quite some time.  Am I looking at something different from what you are saying?

The Guest account is required for the forum to run, non logged in users come under this account, it is also used for things like if you delete a user then all their posts are put across to the guest account as all posts require an account that they attached to in order to correctly display.
