I don't understand the question.
What is the reason not to set the account to protected?

Atrol, thanks for your response.

the reason is that I want the user only can modify their password and their columns, but not their preferences.

I achieve this modifying the source code (I comment the line that shows the link to My preferences) but I want to know if it is possible without modify the code

thanks a lot for your support

There is no way to get this functionality without changing the source code or writing a plugin.
Not showing the link is not enough.
If the user knows the URL he is stil able to change the settings.
