Strangeness with rsync

Like Keven, I am getting the same "file has vanished: <some randomly chosen
blady-bla file name> (w/ or w/o the in backup)" message. However, unlike
Keven, sometimes the file is in the destination, and sometimes it isn't.
My setup is:
Source:
Window XP Pro
via a mounted Window's share
Destination:
FC3 Linux
rsync 2.6.3
Script:
mount -o username=root,password='<the pw>' <windows pc + share name>
<mount point>
rsync -vazS --partial --no-blocking-io --timeout=300 --delete
--modify-window=2 \
--exclude=this \
--exclude=that \
--exclude=and \
--exclude=the \
--exclude=other \
--exclude=thing \
<mount point> <destination path> > newBackup.log
umount <mount point>
Thanks,
Clay Goss
