You are pointing the desktop folder to the server. If you don't want it 
there you should probably point it elsewhere. Like "%USERPROFILE%\Desktop", 
which may work with your exclusion list, or %HOMEDRIVE%\%HOMEPATH%\Desktop 
? You can see all your environment variables by typing SET at the Windows 
command line.
