Exclude menu item or component from EasySocial registration

Hi

I have two group of users on my site - general users and merchants.
The merchants component is CM Live Deal and it makes it possible to have separate registration forms for general users and for merchants by linking a joomla registration menu with CM live. It then integrates its form inside the regular joomla registration form created specially created for Merchants.
With EasySocial, this arrangement is affected as EasySocial registration is now used even if you create a special joomla registration link for Merchants to use. Every registration is redirected to EasySocial so that it is now impossible to use the merchant link.
Please how can i exclude this particular component or menu-item from EasySocial registration so that anyone that clicks on "Register as merchant" link can register without being taken through EasySocial registration?
Thanks
