Yes that's all exactly correct. That is what all your visiting guests are seeing.On a different laptop, to act as a guest, I did enter URL with the domain plus ending in /phpbb3/index.php and /phpbb3/viewonline.php. The response was, Must be logged in to view ... At the same time using my first laptop logged in as an administrator I was able to see a new guest arrive and accessing the index.com. The IP of the new guest was that of my other laptop.
That's perfectly normal and it's been like that for years. You have numerous search/indexing bots that will appear as guests, you will have spambots looking for sites they can sign up to, you'll have real users before they click 'login' and new people just looking for that subject.What I find disturbing is the length of time and the number of guests arriving on line trying to access different areas of the forum.
