Guests can watch users control panel

I think default setting in phpBB is disabled for guests?

Should be, yes. Have you tried that when logged of (as guest)?

Its asking me to log in. Same if I click on one user name.
But at this time I dont see guests watching users control panel anymore.

No problem at all IMO - a screenshot of "User Settings" from a guest account:

Its not about guest viewing user settings forum but about guest viewing user control panel.
User control panel not user settings.

I tested that also: the login page is shown.

You can check with another browser. I am sure sure you have 2 browsers or 2 computers.
Log in as forum admin with one browser and with the other one as a guest click on one user name then with the first browser check the guest with your IP in the online list
If it say guest viewing control panel then its a phpBB bug but if not then some guests may have found a way to view users control panel.

I can only repeat myself: I already did what you suggested, and even "my guest" accessed from another (public) IP address - the login page is shown for the guest while "Who is online" shows "viewing user control panel".
