I concur this is a frustrating feature. No 'helper' features should exist without a setting to disable it.

Just type normal text in a comment and use an apostrophe. Netbeans thinks it's a quotation mark and adds another one.

Or if you are used to typing things quickly and add your own quotes, extras get added in. At the very least, this should
work like parentheses, where if you enter another quote after it automatically put one in for you, it just ignores the
input.
