decided that the 3rd SD window referring to 'Scrap' meant
Any files that SyncDiscs removes are copied to the scrap path.
I have now found a posting to this list by David on this very

Presumably the program assumes you don't do anything barmy like set up
recursive synchronisation. Some versions have the ability to ignore
certain zones (or paths). I suppose it would be easy enough to add your
scrap path to the zones.
Obviously ideally the program should protect you from such things, and
I've just outlined a simple way that it could be modified to do that.
