When using adodb you should escape strings using the $db->qstr() method,
this will escape the string properly for the database type you use.

Data returned will be returned 'sanely', i.e. if slashes where added for
insertion into the database, they will be removed automagically.

Have a look at the adodb documentation, it's pretty detailed and
explains all this.
