Francisco,
    You need to put a space between /. and 1.  In Mathematica 3.0.1/WinNT:
list={1,0,1,0,0,1}
k=0;
newlist={1,0,1,0,0,1} /.1:>++k

Out[22]={1,0,1,0,0,1}
Out[23]={10.,0,10.,0,0,10.}\[RuleDelayed]++k

where

list={1,0,1,0,0,1}
k=0;
newlist={1,0,1,0,0,1} /. 1:>++k

Out[24]={1,0,1,0,0,1}
Out[25]={1,0,2,0,0,3}

..because
In[31]:=(list/.1) :>++k
Out[31]={10.,0,10.,0,0,10.}\[RuleDelayed]++k

-mark
