QuoteShould only be used as a minor deterrent. Will NOT secure restricted area against any member(s) with more than adequate knowledge regarding URLs.

It should be modified to cover that loophole but in its current form, not reco
That is not true, well at least I could not fugure out how to get in without login in. Just give it a try and you will see. Or you can even try to get in on my site.

they can see all the sub-board on the site but there is some specific sub-boards that they can't enter eventhough he can see the sub-board.
You need to allow the guest to view the board from the admin boards menu. And then change the local permission of that board and do not allow them to enter the board. I can post some pictures if this is confusing you.

Don't need to post me the pic ... Just direct me by telling me what i should click and it would be very helpful :)
example :
Admin CP -> Members -> Permissions
Ok
First let's make sure your global permissions are all set. Everyone that you want to allow to enter the boards click Admin CP => permissions => modify allow Enter board
do this for all membergroups that you want to give access to all global boards.
next click Admin cp => Boards
find the board you want to make visible and click on Modify
click on check all and then on modify
Next
click on permissions for that board and click ok to use local permissions
click modify under guest (or any group that you do not want access to that board) and uncheck enter board permission.
On my website (http://www.geeksforchrist.com) you will notice that Guest cannot enter my forums except a couple of boards in the announcements section.
