Brion, 
Yes, I checked this option and it is turned off in my php.ini file.  Do you know of anything else that might cause this issue?  My other option would be to upgrade to 1.3.11 to see if it fixes. 
 
 
Thanks again 
Jared

Make sure you've got magic_quotes_runtime turned off. This is a special
PHP configuration option which will CORRUPT ALL YOUR DATA if on. (The
default is *off*, and there is no reasonable reason to ever turn it on.)

Also, upgrade to 1.3.11; there are a number of security updates since 1.3.6.
