If you open a page in an editor you will see a line like this near the top:
include('session_handler.inc');
If it is present in the file then it forces visitors to either register or login to access the page. If it is not present then they can see the page without doing either.
For example, when you do a search from the index page it brings up the page prgminisearch.php. In the installation, this file is allowed to be accessed by non-registered members. However if you add the line shown above under include('db_connect.php'); in prgminisearch.php then visitors will have to login / register to see the search results from the index page.
Please note that the the session_handler should always be included after the db_connect.php
