tar ball with illegal file names

I have a tar file which I made on a Linux machine.
Some files inside that tar have names that are
illegal on a NTFS filesystem: they contain
a colon, questionmark, or double-quote. Is
there anyway to extract these files on a Windows machine?
Both cygwin's tar and winzip just try to extract
under its original name and fail. I need a tool
that will prompt me or modify the name or something.
Thanks,
Dan
