Michael now has $desc = stripslashes( $desc ); in showproduct.php so this works fine for those with magic quotes on. However, it is not correct for those with magic quotes off.

Set PHP_VALUE magic_quotes_gpc 0 in an htaccess file in the classifieds directory to turn off magic quotes. Then place an ad using "want\slash" to see "wantslash" shows onscreen.

Like I said, with magic quotes on, $desc = stripslashes( $desc ); strips the extra slashes. With magic quotes off, $desc = stripslashes( $desc ); unnecessarily strips intended slashes.
