After creation registration, if the user try to click on my Account, he may get SPS page with Not authorized exception and was able to find below entry in event log.

An exception of type ‘System.UnauthorizedAccessException’ occurred and was caught.

when troubleshoot further, I am able to found that the logged in user is not having proper privileges in MOSS site. To fix this, I followed below steps

Open administrator website (using windows credentials)
Click on “Site Action” –> “Site Settings” and click on “Modify all Site Settings”.
Click on “people and groups” under “users and permissions” section.
Click on “Registered Users” and add newly added user email Id to this group.
