    From the name of the variable – QueuePrefix, looks like MSMQ private queue path – http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc776346(WS.10).aspx

    Otherwise, $ is a valid character in file / directory name in Windows and it could just be that. Especially since it has .\ in your case. But like others mentioned, it is used to to denote shares like \\C$ and so on.
