The question mark characters, '?', can not be used in a filename

According to 
http://www.grouplogic.com/knowledge/index.cfm/fuseaction/view_Info/docID/111
"The following characters are invalid as file or folder names on Windows using 
NTFS:
/ ? < > \ : * | " and any character you can type with the Ctrl key

In addition to the above illegal characters the caret ^ is also not permitted 
under Windows Operating Systems using the FAT file system."

and at: http://www.ss64.com/ntsyntax/faq.html
"Legal characters in NTFS include the following:    [ ] . ; = ( )

The period (.) cannot be the first or only character in the filename

Illegal Characters: 
The following characters are not permitted in Windows file or directory names:
                                                 / \ : * ? " < > |
