Windows forbidden characters in file names on NTFS

$

I'm using a USB external harddisk with NTFS as my backup for several OpenSuse and Wiindows machines.

The problem is with file names, an example being a filename containing "|", and using windows to access an OpenSuse written file or directory.

OpenSuse writes and reads the files as they are, while windows chokes on names with forbidden characters, you can't even delete them.

Any suggestions how to handle this?
