 What I think is happening is that Backup Exec is scanning the local servers hard drives for the selection list.
There was a fix to this, can't remember what it exactly was, bu you needed to stop the backup exec services and rename one of the dll's - think it was the one for the Sharepoint services - I think there was even a hotfix for this as well.
This was the case even if you didn't have sharepoint anywhere on the network
