File->Export->Objects->HTTP on a capture containing HTTP traffic with query
parameters (http://url?query) fails in Windows with the error "Some files could
not be saved."  It's trying to use URL components as the pathname, but question
marks aren't allowed in Windows filenames.  It also doesn't filter other
invalid characters, like colons.

The only painful workaround I've found is to save each file one at a time, to
enter a filename manually.  I'd suggest allowing the saved URL to be
URL-encoded.
