I've tried to convert the string with various encoding, using :

MyString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:data

But it doesn't change anything.
You're doing unnecessary, and probably incorrect, conversions. Go to
NSData first, and then to NSString using an explicit encoding:
NSData *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL: theURL];
NSString *string = [[[NSString alloc] initWithData: data encoding:
NSISOLatin1StringEncoding] autorelease];
Note however, that this will not solve your problem unless you happen
to find out the correct encoding to use! Don't use
NSUnicodeStringEncoding (or any other encoding) unless you're _sure_
it's the right one!
Also note that regular string encodings will not (AFAIK) handle HTML
character encodings for you. To do that, you might be able to use the
functionality provided by NSAttributedString (in the AppKit
additions). Init an attributed string with your HTML data, and then
grab a plain NSString from this attributed string.
Or perhaps there's functionality in WebKit to do this?
