Magic quotes are not secure and will be completely removed in the near
future. Even addslashes/stripslashes are not secure, because they don't
escape all necessary characters for database input.

So the general rule is: Test for magic quotes if you can't disable them,
remove them if necessary with stripslashes(), then apply the appropriate
escaping functions wherever necessary (e.g. mysql_real_escape_string()).
