I'm using the following author archive code:

<?php cryout_before_content_hook(); ?>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : ?>
<?php
/* Queue the first post, that way we know
* what author we're dealing with (if that is the case).
*
* We reset this later so we can run the loop
* properly with a call to rewind_posts().
*/
the_post();
?>
<header class="page-header">
<h1 class="page-title author"><?php printf( __( 'Author Archives: %s', 'parabola' ), '<span class="vcard"><a class="url fn n" href="' . esc_url( get_author_posts_url( get_the_author_meta( "ID" ) ) ) .

</header>
<?php

* rewind the loop back to the beginning that way
* we can run the loop properly, in full.
*/
rewind_posts();
// If a user has filled out their description, show a bio on their entries.
if ( get_the_author_meta( 'description' ) ) : ?>
<div id="author-info">

I need to exclude a category from the author page. However I can't get this to work.
If added
query_posts (query_posts( 'cat=-x' ); where x is category to skip),
instead of looping through posts I always see one single/same post which is not of selected category.
Any suggestions, why this might not work?
