Do you use BuddyPress?
If so have you tried "URI Access Restrictions", you'll find it under WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> URI Access Restrictions?
This video talks about that:

If you aren't using BuddyPress maybe "Alternative Views" can solve the problem, you'll find it under WP Admin -> s2Member -> Restriction Options -> Alternative Views.

Hope this helps :) .

You can still use "URI Access Restrictions", you'll find it under WP Admin -> s2Member -> General Options -> URI Access Restrictions, you can try to block the words /author/ and so any URL that contains "/author/" will be blocked.
