Having that exact problem with an import function for Adsmanager. Moved
to PHP server and get this error.
Need to figure out how to fix this. Any ideas Gary. :)

It's not a matter of version of Joomla, but rather philosophy of PHP
developers.
Turning magic quotes on sanitizes variables automatically so they have
less potential for causing database injection attacks.
Initially, this was suggested as "more secure" because it means the
programmer doesn't have to sanitize the data.
Then the problem is that big apps[like Joomla] get installed on lots
of different platforms, so you can't count on it being turned on.
What is worse, is that you have to use 2 different lines of code for
retrieving variables based on whether magic quotes is on or off. So
when you have software which can be deployed on platforms you have no
control over, now one line of code has become 4, because you have to
do an if/else clause for every variable retrieval.
So what was initially created to aid programmers in being lazy now
causes more work for programmers. Hence programmers forced to do more
work inaccurately will say it is less secure because their doing more
work.
The long and the short of it is, magic quotes has no impact on server
security. It's the PHP programming that will have that impact.

So my big question for this wet Saturday afternoon is, should this be
OFF for all modern installations of Joomla, or it isn't a security
issue anymore?
Yes, I plan to upgrade all the Joomla web sites to the latest. I
presume the best way to do this is follow the chain of patches?
Actually, no you can't upgrade from 1.0 to 1.5 - instead you migrate.
Depending on how many components you have this may or may not be painful.
The way we did it recently was to create a dev snapshot of a
production system.
Then installed the migrator component to export all the base joomla stuff.
Then we created another dev site and installed 1.5 onto it, importing
the migration file during setup.
Then we enabled the legacy mode plugin. I copied over the tables for
some existing components[advanceSEF and Zoomgallery] and then
installed the latest versions of those components to the 1.5 site.
We copied over the contents of the 1.0 templates directory and those
worked in 1.5 with legacy enabled.
Than we updated the templates to 1.5 and turned off legacy mode.
Finally once we were sure the site was correct, the dev site was
backed up and restored to production.
