With register_globals ON your site is much more subject to cross site scripting. This allows someone to inject code into the url line which can allow malicious scripts to get placed on your server! So its best not to use those. Here is a longer explanation

and

Hope that helps. Merry Christmas and God bless

well, the easiest way would be to switch on register_globals from php.ini. In code version has not worked on my servers
