 * although i disabled anyone who is not registered to make a comment, i still found
   comments from people who are not registered. because i looked at who made those
   comments and then i compared it with registered users and they were not among
   registered users. can you tell me what can i do?

 * Possibly through your theme or a poorly coded plugin.
 * Try adding this to your .htaccess file:
 *     ```
       RewriteEngine On
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} POST
       RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .wp-comments-post\.php*
       RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !.*yourdomain.com.* [OR]
       RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^$
       RewriteRule .* - [F]
       ```

 * Don’t forget to change yourdomain.com to your actual TLD.
