There hou can read:

If you want roaming profiles to not include certain folders, you can 
exclude them. Excluding internet temporary files, cookies, and outlook 
files can keep the roaming profile small. To exclude folders

Another (better?) way to do this is with the MMC policy editor utility,
which will enable use of "point 'n click" policy rules. I'm
not sure
whether this can be done with the standard MMC snapins, but it can
certainly be done with Nitrobit's Group Policy Editor.
