Issue with folder name that ends with a dot

I'm trying BestSync to backup an FTP server of one of our client (UNIX machine) and I have Windows 7.
It seems everithing good but I find some folder, made by our customer, with a final dot (like \Software.\ ). I cant' ask him to rename all folder and remove the dot.
BestSyn create the folder under Windows7 but the folder is not accessible and not possible to rename it.
I think W7 doesn't like folder with a dot and in effect if I try to manually create a folder with a final dot the system create the folder but without the dot.
Do you have any suggestion or turnoround?
thanks a lot from Florence (Italy)
