if i edit php register_globals to off, xampp status does not reflect the current status of mysql, php, ssi & cgi.

quoting from xampp status page :-

Some changes to the configuration sometime may cause false negative status reports. With SSL (https://localhost) all these reports do not function!

is this the only effect? is there any workaround for this behaviour?

the reason why i'm posting this is because when register_globals is on i can try the demos like Biorythm but with register_globals off i cant run Biorythm.

so.. if biorythm cant work with register_globals off will other php prog be affected too? coz i'm getting weird result from other php progs from my own testing.
