What can non-members see?

Can they read the titles of members-only threads? Someone asked me that and I don't know the answer.

Non-Members have hearts of stone, not of flesh, and they are not able to see anything.

Sorry, could not resist.

logged on without signing in and you can't even see the forums that are for members only, it's like they don't exist.

Can the major search engines, like Yahoo search or Google, see anything in the Member's only Forums?? Curious.

That is correct because the spiders that the search engines use to crawl sites "see" what a user who is not logged in sees.
