However, I'm having a problem. Every user who signs up becomes a member of all groups. I can't delete them. When I edit the user, the list of groups comes up, and I can't delete any of them. but on the groups page, my custom groups say zero members.
I want to do 2 things:
1. Not allow new users to be part of certain groups (some projects should not be publicly visible).
2. Add/delete users from a group.
BTW, I have the same problem with projects: I can't edit the groups that are allowed to see them.
Help?

The default behavior of the new user code is not to add people to all groups. It only adds new users to the 'User' group. When you go to edit a user, only the group names that are selected in the select box are the ones to which the user is assigned.
If you can't control-click various items in the the select box on the user page and the admin page, then it could be a browser issue -- what browser are you using?

Crikey, my bad. When I opened a User and saw all the groups listed, I thought that it had added the user to all the groups, and I tried to delete them from the list. Now I see that you need to select the appropriate groups and submit to add them!
Sorry to bother. Not enough sleep. . .
