Whatever it is you might try the 'preserveSingleQuotes' function.

for example, my search critera
                * "'Australia'" works fine
                * "'Australia's'" obviously throws an error
                * "'Australia`'`s'" throws the same error
                * "'Australia\'s'" throws no errors, but returns no results and it 
certaily should

(for reference the error thrown is
        coldfusion.tagext.lang.CFSearchTagException: Error # -2 Error E1-
                0106 (Query Builder): No topic built.. )

Very annoying :-) Any help much appreciated
