That file IS the virus - or part thereof. Why would you want to replace it?

> Hi,
>
> The file on my Win XP Pro SP2 PC called dmserver.dll - located here
> c:\Windows\system32\dmserver.dll - has a virus according to my anti-virus
> software and confirmed by virusscan.jotti.org where 5 of the AV checkers
> showed a positive.
>
> I've no idea how to restore a clean version of dmserver.dll can someone
> tell me how please?
>
> Extra important info.: Today I installed a new SATA hard disk and a SATA
> II controller card for it. After installation I pointed the XP 'found new
> hardware wizard' to the controller card's CD for the drivers, all seemed
> fine until I went to Control Panel -> Computer Management -> Storage ->
> Disk Management to format the new drive. It was when I tried to access
> Disk Management that I first got the 'Virus Threat Detected' which meant I
> could not load the Logical Disk Manager Service, which is the file
> dmserver.dll, to format the hard disk.

> Could this just be coincidence? An anti-virus scan of the controller

> Please advise, I'm stuck. :(

> Thanks and regards, etc..
