Incremental Backup Does Everything
I recently changed all my backups to use modified time (and the NTFS change journal for incrementals). However, my incremental backups now backup everything on the server. I have run through a full backup again, and the incremental still tries to back up all files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Do you have an anti-virus software doing a system scan on your machines? If so, see my blog on this subject

It also have a solution if you are using SEP. If you are using other anti-virus software, check with the vendor to see whether they have a similiar solution.
