    £ &pound signs in cute editor

     
    £signs keep disappearing as soon as i save from the cute editor to the database, they simply vanish... gone.
     
    no other symbol suffers the same fate as the iconic pound sign.
     
    why is this? why can i not save pound signs. why does the cute editor strip them out? and why can't i find anyone else experiencing this misfortune!?!?
     
    please help.
     
    if i simply hit the £ (shift + 3) in HTML view the pound symbol will be removed when saved
     
    if i enter £ into the CODE view the pound symbol will be removed.
     
    if i enter £ in HTML view the pound symbol will be saved, but then removed when saved again... as it is now a £ symbol in CODE view. 
     
    many thanks.
