if a cdrom burnt under windows contains hidden files you cannot see and/or read them from linux. while you can see hidden files in mounted windows filesystems. This happens with any Linux kernel and i have no idea how windows does burn these hidden files on cdroms and wether or not it would be good for Linux to read them, anyway there is a "Microsoft Joliet CDROM extensions" voice that claims to let you read Joliet cdroms and maybe you would like these file to be read too.
cheers
