#12 Windows write file & special character failure

[Anonymous]

If has characters \/|*" ?: <> the file is not allowed to be written.
I have to go and figure out which file it was near and download it myself.

On another note
The information proviede is not usefull to discovering where the file lives in flickr. EG: set number.

FlickrBackup does check for invalid filenames prior to creating the files. See this class:
http://flickrbackup.cvs.sourceforge.net/flickrbackup/FlickrBackup/src/org/sunkencity/io/FileHelper.java?view=markup
see the method isFilenameLegal() and isLegalPosixName() and isLegalWindowsName()

I also do not understand your note about discovering where the file lives. Please provide more info.
