Wordpress - Single quotes, am I being daft

When I write a single quote ( ' ) in posts, Wordpress doubles them up (trying to make them an escape character?). Every time I re-edit a post it doubles every quote, so after a few edits half of the post is quotes.

The work around I have is to use & # 3 9 ; (spaces so the forums don't change it). This works if I turn off the fancy text editor, as the fancy one changes that code into the quote symbol.

Surely there's a really obvious way of quickly entering single quotes that I've missed.
