S-1-5-18 [Local System Account] causing excessive audit logs

$

Advanced auditing is in place in my environment (W2K8 R2).  Advanced Auditing > Object Access > Audit File System is configured for Success and Failures.  Advanced Auditing > Global Object Access Auditing is enabled for a group of domain users and all options are selected (Full Control).

The Security log on the servers shows many Event ID4663 (Attempt to access an object) so I know my File auditing policy is working.  The problem is that is is not auditing only my selected group of domain users as I chose in the Global Object Access Auditing section.  It is logging the S-1-5-18 (Local System) account excessively when my Backup Exec process backs up files (beremote.exe).     This causes excessively logging to occur and eats in my retention policy of security logs.

I only want a selected group of users audited, not the Local System Account.

What am I missing?
