Others have reported problem with weird characters too... issue 75.

There's a list of illegal directory characters in .Net framework, we're 
currently
using it to remove those characters... But it seams Microsoft isn't keeping 
this list
up to date... so we'll probably have to work around it, in future releases, 
thanks
for the notification...

#2 sounds pretty much like a filesystem conversation flaw...
But there's certainly a lot of chars that shouldn't be used in filename and
directories... I guess using the list of illegal chars from .Net framework 
isn't good
enough...

This defect is fixed in version 1.3 (just tried ":wumpscut:" and it will be 
saved in
folder "_wumpscut_"). If any other character fails (in actual version) please 
inform
us. For compatibility issues the character ":" will also be filtered on 
linux/ext3 etc!
