Problem with Guests?

I think I have a problem with Guests not being able to access my forum. I say *think*, because it's a bit weird.  If I log out, I can see all of the boards that a Guest should be able to see.  However, if I move away from the page, when I come back to it, as a Guest, I just get the main login screen, with no boards visible.

This leads me to believe that Guests cannot view any of my boards without logging in or registering.

I have gone through the board access permissions, and all of the boards I want Guests to see, have the Guest box ticked.  I have also checked the option in Admin » Features and Options » General, and the option to allow Guests to browse the forums is ticked.

I'm now a bit stumped, as I can't find any other permission setting to allow / disallow Guests from viewing the boards.

Can anyone help, please?  Forums are:

http://www.pc-pals.com
http://www.idnetters.co.uk

Thanks in advance.  :)

Sorry, guys, problem solved, and it was down to my own stupidity.  I was using a bookmark to recheck, and that was linked to the Unread Posts page, which, of course, produces the login page to Guests.  The main index pages work fine for Guests.

Thanks for checking anyway,

I'll get my coat...
