The site should have extended security options.
The user shouldn't be registered at once, but user register application should be approved by two(!) already registered users. During registration a user chooses his two referers from the list of existing users. Chosen referers get e-mail or private messages about pending registration and must approve the applicant.
This double confirmation procedure can be either used not for moving a user from anonymous to authenticated role, but for adding any other special role to existing authenticated user.
The materials of the site are "secret" and should be available only to a special group of people. It is not possible to approve each user by administrator, because the society of "special people" is quite vast. The double-user-approved registration is considered to be the most adequate for the landscape of this special society.
Is it possible to implement such double-user-approval functionality using existing modules? Otherwise I will need the support in writing a module from scratch.
Please don't hesitate to ask any questions. I really need to make this function.

I don't know of an existing
I don't know of an existing module that does what you seek, others may know better. But I do know what you want is probably possible as I can see various ways to achieve it.
Drop me a line if you don't get any further assistance.

"Invite" add-on?
I'm not quite shure if it usefull, but may be you can start from here: http://drupal.org/search/node/invites or http://drupal.org/search/node/invite.
"Invites" system can do similar job for you (create private club membership), but doesn't have "membership approval" functionality althought. But may be invite.module can be modified quite easily to suit your needs?
