You can't do it by excluding the top level directories, because Bacula has to
walk the tree of files to find the ones you want. As soon as it sees Exclude,
it will stop. This happens on Linux too, so I doubt that configuration will
work there either. You can do it by carefully including just the directories
that match
c:/Documents and Settings/*
c:/Documents and Settings/*/Dados de aplicativos
c:/Documents and Settings/*/Dados de aplicativos/Thunderbird
c:/Documents and Settings/*/Dados de aplicativos/Thunderbird/Profiles
and exclude everything else, but it is messy.
Another way is to generate the list on-the-fly. See the File = "\|script"
option in the manual. The backslash tells Bacula to run the script on the
client.
