Hi Roberto, I had what looks like a similar problem to yours about a year or so ago with .cube files for molecular orbitals generated from Q-Chem. We posted a bug report (http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3132575&group_id=165310&atid=835077), and it appears that they made a patch in response to the issue. I have not used Avogadro for a while but thought this may be useful to know.
