Despite permissions disallowing forum access, any user can see when an Admin/whatever is viewing a forums they (the non-permissioned user) cannot get into (in fact one they can't even see on the default.asp) via active_users.asp.

I doubt that this should be the case. If there is an option to hide from view if no access, then the forum showing on active_users.asp defeats that purpose.

I have had to do a temp work around by suffixing each private forum with (private) and adding

If right(strURL,13) = "(Private)</a>" Then strURL = "" End If

to the active_users.asp
