Warning Unable to Open edb.log & temp.edu

We have had our Backups running fine for a few weeks now but one is giving us trouble, nothing major but kind of annoying.

The backup will run fine but we get a warning stating: "Unable to open the item" for two files.

We are using AOFO on this server and receive no other warnings from what is below:

Backup- \\WKST.Domain.com\C:

Unable to open the item \\WKST.Domain.com\C:\WINDOWS\security\edb.log - skipped.

 Unable to open the item \\WKST.Domain.com\C:\WINDOWS\security\tmp.edb - skipped.

There is no need to backup the above 2 files.

Refer to http://www.symantec.com/docs/TECH92375

The document is for disabling AFE.  How is it relevant to the user's problem?

...you can try deselecting the server in your selection list, and then reselecting it. Also, check and make sure an AV isn't blocking access to those 2 particular files...
