You mean beside telling your ISP that the summer of 1999 has come and gone?

I don't know what the workaround is, but if your ISP hasn't updated PHP,
then I'd be willing to bet (based on personal experience) they haven't
updated much else. I hope you don't have any sensitive data in your
website - that server is begging to be compromised. If you are using this
server to play around with personal projects then you will be fine, but if
you are doing work for your business or a client it is your moral obligation
to operate in a responsible server environment.

I would (and did, in a similar situation) change ISPs, explaining to the old
ISP exactly why they are losing my business.
