Is DXTRANS.DLL safe?

When opening or changing web pages, Spyware Terminator blocks C:
\Windows\System32\dxtrans.dll. Is this a safe file? Should I remove
the block?

Running XP Pro, SP2; IE 6.0.29.

dxtrans.dll is a Windows system file. Here are its version details of the
file on my own WinXP SP3 installation:

--a-- W32i DLL ENU 8.0.6001.18702 shp 216,064 03-08-2009 dxtrans.dll

Thanks. It just popped up and I didn't know what to make of it.
