Put all your albums in categories, and remove the meta albums from the display string on the Config page.

Also, this board has a large number of non-native English speakers.  Please refrain from using things like 'ne1'; slang can make it very difficult for them to help you.

Do you want to hide the albums from everyone, or just from unregistered users?

On the Config page, look for the box for something like 'content of the main page'.  It will have a value like 'breadcrumb/catlist/alblist/random,2/lastup,2'.

Change this string to change the appearance of the main page.  

In your case, you may want to change it to

catlist

or

breadcrumb/catlist

My guess is that "Show first level albums" in config is turned to yes. Turn that to no, and the albums won't show on the first page if they are in categories
