Solution

  • You are using a seriously outdated version of Joomla, which contains many security flaws.
    I strongly recommend downloading the latest Joomla instead!

    As for why you're getting the error: The "magic quotes" functionality has been removed from PHP, due to many reasons. One of which it completely failing to do what it was designed for, namely keeping things secure.
