Comments.Text: This is separate, I know, but if you're on a version that's that old, there are a bunch of security vulnerabilities that have been fixed since then (see https://civicrm.org/advisory), not to mention things fixed in newer PHP versions.
  
  Unless your hosting provider is planning on providing what you need in the near future, you really should plan on moving to a new host sometime soon.

  If you are using 4.2.9 you could at least upgrade to the latest in that series, which is [4.2.20](https://sourceforge.net/projects/civicrm/files/civicrm-stable/4.2.20/). This may solve your problem.
