I had that problem with a couple client servers that i back up, i
added an exclude in the
web interface that skips them,
for they key i added *
and for the BackupFilesExclude i used /Documents and Settings/*/Local
Settings/Temporary Internet Files
i also added another one for /Documents and Settings/*/Local Settings/Temp

that seemed to take care of the problem.
