Hidden OU and hidden users in active directory
Solution 1
You can use ADSIEdit to explore and edit any particle of AD, since ADSIEdit is just a LDAP editor. It doesn't know anything about the special meanings of the keys and values you can edit there. I maintain several Active Directories (Standard Server and also SBS), and have not seen something like a hidden OU / hidden user. Someone tries to pull your leg.
Beware: Modifying your AD with ADSIEdit can terminally damage it more so than any mistake with RegEdit.
Solution 2
Open "Active Directory Users and Computers", go to "View" (through the Alt key to display the top menu) and choose "Advanced Features".
