"The following error must be resolved before you can continue the installation process:
register_globals is enabled. Drupal requires this configuration directive to be disabled. Your site may not be secure when register_globals is enabled. The PHP manual has instructions for how to change configuration settings. (Currently using PHP register globals Enabled ('1'))
Please check the error messages and try again."
Does anyone know what i should do in this situation ?

on your own server: using your php.ini file you can set this to off.
on a shared server, you may be able to use a custom php.ini and set it to off, or have your host do so.

will it effect my other websites ?
using the shared hosting from GoDaddy, will such a change effect my other drupal websites which are 5.x ?

using a custom php.ini only in your drupal install folder will allow the php.ini changes to only take effect in that folder and those under it.
a host change affecting the entire account would change this setting for all software installed.
Though it will be up to you to do the research to see if altering that setting for other software will have any adverse effect. Specifically because you've chosen not to list "other" software installed.
