Are you using BASH?

If so try:

rm egotrippi_-_\?\?l\?\?_koskaan_ikin\?\?.mp3

or try <TAB-TAB> after every char until you get it. More than once I
have had similar problems... I have ALWAYS been able to get either way
to work. And yes, I have had nice names with some really nice
conventions. scary it can be done.

Luck.
