turn off captcha / error message

Hello there,

after installation, I found the captcha image won't show. I have tried to add a php.ini in the simg folder and did not work. Can I turn off the captcha at the time being? how can I do that?

On top of the join page there are two lines of error

Deprecated: Function set_magic_quotes_runtime() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\inc\header.inc.php on line 186

Deprecated: Assigning the return value of new by reference is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\inc\utils.inc.php on line 618

Is this the reason that cause captcha not showing?

Appreciate your help.

Send this one to your host.  It's an issue with magic quotes, your code is fine.
