Well looking at the situation this problem is associated with xml file in your system. I am suggesting you that you should disable .XML file to being indexed. You can get this option from Indexing. Using this you will delete XML files from the indexing list of the system. I think using above method your problem will no longer exist. Let me know whether it was helpful to you or not. Thank a lot.

You can also try with removing index location from your system. You have to launch indexing option from the control panel. You have to click on modify and you have to choose check box which is described as Change selected locations and click on OK button. If you needed to add folders but not the subfolders of the that particular folder you have to simply click the folder and uncheck the check box located near to the sub folder. All the excluded folder will display in to the Exclude column in to the list of Summary of selected locations.
