You might want to check out the wiki:

If you include "exclude = yes" in your Exclude {} block then all Files  
and/or directories selected would be excluded. If you leave out the  
exclude=yes statement then everything will be _included_ (seems weird  
to me since the block is clearly called Exclude...)

First of all a Exclude {} block accepts only "File" directives. If you  
want to exclude files and/or directories based on wildcards or regexps  
than you have to put these insind an Options {} block. If you include  
"exclude = yes" in your Options {} block then all Files and/or  
directories selected would be excluded. If you leave out the  
exclude=yes statement then everything will be _included_

Following your example the FileSet should look like this:

FileSet {
        Name = "WinxpFull"
        Enable VSS = yes
        Include {
                Options {
                        wilddir = "c:/windows/temp/*"
                        wilddir = "*temporary internet files*"
                        wildfile = "*pagefile.sys"
                        wildfile = "*.log"
                        wildfile = "*system32/perflib*.dat"
                        exclude = yes
                }
                Options {
                        signature = SHA1
                        compression=GZIP
                        ignore case = yes
                }
        
                File = c:/
                File = d:/
        }
        
        Exclude {
                File = "c:/temp"
                File = "d:/temp"
        }
}

Note that if you put something inside an Exclude {} block it will be  
completely ignored (the whole directory). If you have to restore your  
system then there will be no temp dir on you disks.
