Perhaps you also need to disable magic_quotes_runtime:
set_magic_quotes_runtime(0); // just call it once per page
Are you sure you actually call your removeSlashes() function?
Why do you think you need your restoreSlashes() function? (NB: not
sufficient for MySQL statements, and not applicable for some other
databases)

"Keep in mind that the setting magic_quotes_gpc will not work at
