The only place I can find this is in the CA article below. The article
applies to version 6. I'm on 7, so I'm assuming that I just carried the
same exclusion list forward when I upgraded. I also exclude the directories
\exchsrvr, \winnt\system32\inetsrv, and M:\. That list must have come from
somewhere at CA too - I wouldn't have excluded them except in response to
some kind of instructions. I also exclude the process cidaemon.exe, which
is recommended in the readme or release notes. The article is at
