Single quotes escaped in comments (2 posts)

    The single quotes in comments are being escaped with a \ (backslash). The escaped quotes are stored in the wp database but are not stripped when displaying either on the blog or the wp-admin.
    It's not theme specific as I've tried using different themes and the problem persists.
    Is it a known bug or does it have something to do with my WP/PHP configuration?

    I'm also experimenting the same issue with WP 2.8.2
    Don't know if my sysadmin enabled the PHP Magic quotes, but slashed appears when editing a comment within the admin panel.

    Comments from the web don't show this behavior.

    I tried to disable magic quotes in my .htaccess, but this does't fix the problem... :(
