I've seen this before.

You've got a problem with symbolic links.

See this knowledge base article:

http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q158/3/62.asp?LN=EN-US&SD=gn&FR=0&qry=disk%20administrator&rnk=44&src=DHCS_MSPSS_gn_SRCH&SPR=NTW40

It might not hurt to download the symlinks.zip file from that page.

Incidentally, I don't recommend EVER using disk administrator for the very reason that the results you're seeing are too likely to occur.
