HELP understanding: remote execution bug?

I would appreciate it you folks would answer a couple of basic
questions about the "Remote execution" error:

1. Is it a browser issue.
2. Is it a PHP version issue.
3. Is a a $HTTP_POST_VAR[] vs. $_POST[] issue?
4. Is a a $_POST vs. $_GET[] issue?

I'm trying to use ezContents CMS calendar module, which is called from
a menu link, the module path is
/ezcontents/modules/calendar/calendar.php.

5. Is there a programming change I can make to make this module run
more safely?
TIA,
David

WHICH "Remote execution" error? Does this have anything
to do with Saddam Hussein and his upcoming trial?
1. Is it a browser issue.
2. Is it a PHP version issue.
3. Is a a $HTTP_POST_VAR[] vs. $_POST[] issue?
4. Is a a $_POST vs. $_GET[] issue?
It's a "you forgot to describe the problem" issue.
At least include the exact text of the error message and
what you did to provoke it.

You know what they say about 10,000 out of work comedians :-)
Here's the error message:
Remote Code Execution Patch Installed on this implementation of
ezContents.
Now back to my previous questions.

Here's the error message:

ezContents.
This doesn't sound like an error message, any more than, say:
Copyright 2005 Microsoft Corporation, all rights reserved
Now back to my previous questions.

Are you sure calendar.php hasn't been overwritten with text consisting
entirely of that error message? Can you find the "error message"
text anywhere within any of the *.php files? In short, are you
sure this application is installed correctly and the files
haven't been damaged?
