require 'fileutils'

original_path, target_path =
  'D:/Stuff/Ruby', 'C:/new'

ignore_folder = 'D:/Stuff/Ruby/2/'
copy_files = Dir["#{original_path}/**/*.*"].reject do |file_path|
  file_path.start_with? ignore_folder
end

FileUtils.copy Dir["#{original_path}/**/*.*"], target_path

Thats what I have, and it now copies all the files, but hasn't ignored a 
file thats in D:/Stuff/Ruby/2/ - which is what I wanted..hmmph
