Graham, you could try to disable it using an .htaccess file which is put into the root folder of your domain.
Please add the following line to the .htaccess files php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off If this does not work you could use a php.ini file to disable it. See the first example at http://php.net/manual/de/security.magicquotes.disabling.php <http://php.net/manual/de/security.magicquotes.disabling.php> But to use a php.ini with custom php settings you will have to modify the .htaccess file in your public_html folder. Please add the following to the .htaccess file in the public_html folder. suPHP_ConfigPath /home/YOURACCOUNTNAME/public_html/ <Files php.ini> order allow,deny deny from all </Files> Please replace YOURACCOUNTNAME in the above line with your account name. This will make sure your custom settings in the php.ini are recognized by the server. If this all does not work i would say you should open an emergency support ticket, as the above described solutions should work on their servers.
