I don't know what is going on here, but I'm backing up a Windows XP Home 
machine that has the same logon:

Tibs Version: 1.37.30 (14 July 2005) VSS Windows XP MVS NT 5.1.2600

with bconsole, and here is the top part of my Job report:
19-Jul 01:23 MainSD: Spooling data ...

As you can see, the VSS snapshot was clearly taken.  I'll take a look at the 
code tomorrow. Perhaps I will see something.
