FAT32 foreign characters

Hello,
I have a fat32 partition that I share with windows.
I have many files and folders that use foreign (Norwegian, Swedish... ) but Nautilus shows the "weird" characters as question marks and Songbird media player can't play those files Totem starts playing but crashes.

/dev/sda7 /mnt/sda7 vfat users,auto,uid=1000,gid=1000,rw 0 0

Ok, thanks, I changed iocharset=utf8 and nautilus shows the correct characters
