A software bug in Windows XP or TSM? Seems like Windows XP is "touching"
those files therefore making TSM assume they have been modified in some
secret strange way. If that's the case, put them in the exclude list.

I suppose this question has been asked before, but I haven't seen an answer
for it....

I recently upgraded my Laptop to Windows XP, and now I find that it backs up
the same 3,000 files or so everyday.  These files are primarily things like
DLLs that reside in the Windows and Windows/System32 directories.  When I
check on the files, they do not have a current date - probably the build
date of 8/23/01.

What is the secret to keeping these files from being backed up everyday -
short of putting them in an exclude list.  At this stage I am assuming this
to be a software bug...

By the way, I am running the XP version of the code - IP22519 downloaded
only a couple of weeks ago.
