HELP with site down

[bkpie]

My site was working great this morning. This afternoon when I try to get to the site or admin I get this message

FATAL ERROR: register_globals is disabled in php.ini, please enable it!

I made no changes to the site this morning. first what would cause this so suddenly and what to do to fix it?

Thank you in advance

Your host disabled register_globals on you.

See this:
Register_Globals is Off!!!!!!

Thank you for your response. This is the code(below) I used that worked however I was told that registering globals presents a security risk. Is that true?

php_value register_globals 1

Yes a small risk, but merely having a website presents a much greater security risk. osCMax and osCommerce will not run without it turned on.
