Bug Description

Binary package hint: ntfs-3g

Hi, when I Try to mount a NTFS partition from the "Places" menu, or when I plug in a NTFS pendrive, I get this error.

"Error mounting: mount exited with exit code 1: helper failed with:
Mount is denied because setuid and setgid root ntfs-3g is insecure with the
external FUSE library. Either remove the setuid/setgid bit from the binary
or rebuild NTFS-3G with integrated FUSE support and make it setuid root.
Please see more information at http://ntfs-3g.org/support.html#unprivileged"

I have tryed with no success
$ sudo chown root $(which ntfs-3g)
$ sudo chmod 4755 $(which ntfs-3g)

Pleas advise! it is really annoying!
