Place a + sign in front of the skip. That will cause the skip to apply
to all subdirectories. Right now, your statement only applies to the
root of each drive.

Try:
<< / >>
+skip: *.log *.stm *.edb *.sdb *.mdf *.ldf
and so forth. The << / >> in a windows context means "all local drives"
The +skip will just ensure that it will skip those file types however
deep they may be in the tree and on whatever drive they may appear.
