 * SiteLock has detected a critical malware vulnerability at my site 4starlist.com.
   It came from a user registering on my site and posted ads that had bad links,
   directing viewers to bogus sites. Since then I have activated the Pending Review
   under New Ad Status, manually approving and publishing each ad. What I’d like
   to know is, is there anything in the control panel/dashboard that I can activate
   that will prevent registrars from registering with false information and posting
   malware ads?
