How are you bringing the figure into Carrara? Native import or Transposer?
Transposer usually brings something in if transparency maps are in the figure (I don't use native imp, sorry).
If all else fails you'll have to bring them in yourself and try putting them in the Alpha channel, in the texture room - thats just my preference for the alpha channel though - something about polygon edges not showing up in the shadows - there was a thread about it here ages ago.

The background: in the Assemble room click on Scene and see what comes up, above it - it's either a gradient background/drop or the ground from a sky Atmosphere. You can switch either of those off easily enough.
