Web Hosting : cPanel / WHM – Client’s Run Applications Under Linux Account Nobody

Hostgator and Bluehost are our best webhosts and godaddy.com is the best domain registrar.

As you have probably already guessed, I am in a bit of a snag, and confused at the same time. First I would like to mention that I run the cPanel / WHM suit on my own servers for webhosting. I have just recently noticed that a client, has been able to run a full out shoutcast radio server with his webhosting.

Would the only way to block this would be to close all ports (incoming + outgoing) except for the ones that are used? I am sure there must be a way to disable this other than that.

I see this as a potential security risk, and I seek your help. I have already searched, and came up empty handed. Any help is appreciated.
