Take a look at www.oscommerce.com
Does oscommerce still require register_globals to be on?

Even if it does, you can't instantly equate that as being a Bad Thing. I'm sure you know this, but for other's sake, you can program securely even if you have register_globals ON... you just have to know what you're doing and use good programming practices.
The register_globals setting doesn't matter... it's whether you choose to accept the programmers code as being secure enough for your needs or not.

True, but my issue with it when we were evaluating it was that I didn't know (still don't) how secure their code was/is...and with my boss, wasn't given the time to give it a good looking over (does anyone have a boss who will allow the proper time, for anything? :( ). Not to mention that we have a few other php developers here who are learning as they go, and it wouldn't have been a good idea for us to turn on globals if they (or I) make a mistake.
We ended up going with X-Cart...still not to happy about that one though.
