Apparently there has been a discussion on this long time ago but looks like Wampserver still uses the old php_zip.dll.

Well, nothing much to write about as it’s quite straightforward. You might want to try downloading the latest binary file here to solve the issue. :)

Well, I guess this is due to my lack of knowledge on the existence of PHP default settings reside in apache.

After some research, I found that there is a setting in php that escapes all input from GET, POST and COOKIE (gpc). This setting name is called magic_quotes_gpc. Fortunately, this can easily be switched off in .htaccess by inserting the following line.

php_value magic_quotes_gpc 0

With this line, my painful problem is finally resolved. Personally, I think this switch should never have been switched on into PHP by default as it’s quite confusing for inexperience PHP developer. ;)

Although it can be aborted or ignored, but when it comes to something that distracts your browsing experience and it’s very annoying, I have to find a way to get rid of this ugly box.

This error resurfaced when I had to install Wampserver2 for testing purpose and attempted to access my phpMyAdmin. Google has been my best friend to look for some clues, hints, and best, an answer. Fortunately, I came across geekstogo forum and found an answer. The answer is for me to download a WinSock XP Fix and run it. And Wa la! It fixed my error!!

Hope this helps anyone out there having the same problem :)
