Unfortunately I do not have this up and was wondering about admin options for security...

Are there options to aprove registering members before they can view boards?
In other words, three different ways users can register:
New registration email validation?
Make admin manually preview all new accounts or make new users validate their email address
either Admin or email validation option.
Also

Security (Troublesome Users)
Allow duplicate emails when user registers?
Will not check for existing email address Yes         No
New registration email validation?
Make admin manually preview all new accounts or make new users validate their email address  User Email Validation Admin Validation None  
Get notified when a new user registers via email?  Yes No  
Force guests to log in before allowing access to the board? Yes         No
Disable new registrations? Yes         No
Disable 'Report this post to a moderator' link? Yes         No
Flood control delay (in seconds)
Make users wait before posting again
Can be left blank for no flood control  
Privacy
Allow users to browse the Active Users list? Yes         No
Disable root admin group viewing anonymous online users?
Allow users or groups to brows anonymously?
Anonymous users have an asterisk after their name Yes         No
Disable root admin group viewing online users IP address in online user list?

Jeff, I have many more questions of the new bord and admin options but may be easier if you take a look and compare the two?

No, not yet... but we've been discussing it..

One major thing that was added for security is a prompt for an administrator's password before they can do anything administrative.

But, member approval *will* be a mod or built in.
