Hi Borja,

I can't see that you have received a reply yet, which is unusual for
this excellent list.

May be use this:

;; uncheck tick boxes -----------
(require 'org-checklist)
(defun my-uncheck-ticks()
    "Uncheck tick boxes in the TODO item when state is changed to DONE"
    ( when (and (string= org-state "DONE")
		(org-get-repeat))
      (org-reset-checkbox-state-subtree)))

(add-hook 'org-after-todo-state-change-hook
	  'my-uncheck-ticks)

Org 8 is out, may be time to upgrade?
