restricting backup of media player files

by =?Utf-8?B?dmltYXJtb3Q=?= <vimarmot@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > May 7, 2008 at 09:18 AM

I am doing nightly backups of my PC and am finding that the "incremental" 
backups are backing up MP3 files that I have played that day.  I suppose
that 
by playing the file the archive bit is being reset.  

I wonder if anybody has a method of avoiding backing up these files.  I am

currently using the built in backup with Vista, but have used other backup

packages with the same result.  My backup drive is very large, but I would

really like to avoid this wasted system usage and storage.
