Need to replace damaged IUCTL.dll file

This file is apparently making my computer get mixed signals internally and
it's been damaged, most likely from a trojan or worm that snuck through
somehow, despite internet protection software. Please include a link to the
location for replacing this essential file for autoupdates. I've been
searching for about an hour and a half and cannot spend any more time looking
for it. I'm just going back to the same places on the update page and no
place for this files is shown. It's too frustrating and prehaps someone has
already been through this same thing and knows where it is. Thanks!

I've been searching for a way to resolve this issue for three weeks now and still cannot find any firm answers. I'm this close to a resolution, but pulled up short by one article. I wanted to have the .cab file mentioned in 836986 just a bookmark away just in case I need it after doing the steps to correct the problem.

When I typed regsvr/u C:\WINNT\System32\IUCTL.dll into the Run dialog box, this was unable to be found because iuctl.dll didn't exist according to the system. I've been in the regedit recently and found it in there, it just doesn't work. It's listed as damaged. Should I still try to install the .cab file anyway?
