Ok ... Did a bit more testing on gplugs site this morning and the behaviour
is different then on my sites
The problem is as follows.

I call gf_preparefordb to detemine post mode , HTML filters and if
addslashes is needed.

Step1
After the submit, I check the form variable $comment
  and magic_quotes_gpc has done it's magic - see DEBUG Line1

Step2
Inside gf_preparefordb - the passed variable is missing the escape character
See DEBUG Lines2 and 3

Now, I don't get this behaviour on my various systems - it passes the
variable fine.
I was not passing it with quotes "$message" so I tried that - same results.

Interesting no?

I can re-engineer this but thought I'd pass along my results - any ideas
appreciated.
