When i am using mysql_real_escape_string on my unescaped strings the data in the database is storing with the backslashes which should not happen.

I have magic_quotes_gpc OFF not sure why this is happening. Any idea ?

Is there any setting in the mysql database which needs to be modified.

I am not using addslashes any where in the code. PHP language.

Please help.
