Problems Inserting Images

VirtueMart 3.0.0
Joomla! 2.5.27

This didn't used to be a problem, but recently I have noticed that when I refer to inches in my product descriptions as " when I save the new product (or amend an existing product that has " in the description) Virtuemarte/Joomla changes it to \"
I have got around this by using the insert special character button.

However now I have a different problem.
If I insert an image (either with html code or with the insert image button) Virtuemarte/Joomla changes " to \"
So;
<img src="images/mgduff/RadiceSet.jpg" border="0">
becomes
<img src="\&quot;images/mgduff/RadiceSet.jpg\&quot;" border="\&quot;0\&quot;" />
And I end up with image not displayed.

Can anyone please tell me what is going on

I think you should be using VM3.0.6.4 (or later if the next version is published by the time you see this).  If there was a VM issue it may have been fixed by now - that's what updates are for.
