Hello Mehmet,

taken from our documentation:
a Joomla! hidden feature is the ability to switch between installed templates by passing a special URL parameter. For instance, if you want to apply the JA Purity template, just pass the parameter ?template=ja_purity. For a live example, have fun with http://www.joomla.org/?template=ja_purity.

So this is not a configuration problem, but someone tried to switch your site template.
However, Admin Tools recognized that and blocked the user.
