Just follow the steps in this post

You can also change the settings in new registration approval, by changing it from the "user email" to "administrators"

Go to:
YOUR-URL/modules/system/admin.php?fct=preferences&op=show&confcat_id=2

and change the "Select activation type of newly registered users" from:
"Requires activation by users (recommended"
to:
"administrators"

Then it will be up to you who you approve as a user, but it might take a lot of work to do it, if you are getting a lot of registrations.

You can stop the registrations already by following the steps I've mentioned earlier:

YOUR-URL/modules/system/admin.php?fct=preferences&op=show&confcat_id=2

and change the "Select activation type of newly registered users" from:
"Requires activation by users (recommended"

You should update to XOOPS 2.5.6, but you might wait few weeks for 2.5.7 that should be released soon.
