Toolbox in Sidebar

How do I remove the toolbox for users that are not logged in?

Edit the file: /skins/MonoBook.php Find the section that looks like this (by searching for p-tb):

        <div class="portlet" id="p-tb">
		<h5><?php $this->msg('toolbox') ?></h5>

Replace with this:

        <div class="portlet" id="p-tb">
        <?php if($this->data['loggedin']) { ?>
		<h5><?php $this->msg('toolbox') ?></h5>

Go down to the bottom of the div block that you are editing and find the section that looks like this:

		wfRunHooks( 'MonoBookTemplateToolboxEnd', array( &$this ) );
?>
			</ul>
		</div>
	</div>

and add the line (between the two /div's) that closes off your new "if" statement:

		wfRunHooks( 'MonoBookTemplateToolboxEnd', array( &$this ) );
?>
			</ul>
		</div>
        <?php } ?>		
	</div>
