Thanks Steve and Rowland.

Now i'm not in work, tomorrow i'll do some tests.
I'm using fstab to mount that drive, and iocharset is an option of mount 
(ntfs-3g does not have). Anyway, in last tests i wasn't using that 
option, i was using "locale=es_ES.UTF8". Now i've removed that option 
and i'm testing with a simple "utf8" (like ubuntu ntfs sample). Tomorrow 
i'll try to explore that folder again and i'll report how it works ;)

Greetings!!!
