Strage reflection issue:

I have the following code:

Assembly ass = Assembly.LoadFrom(file);
Type [] typeList = ass.GetExportedTypes();

file is a DLL. The name of the DLL isn't really important except that it's
throwing an exception on the GetExportedType():

The format of the file 'VSUserControlHost.dll' is invalid.

My DLL is not VSUserControlHost.dll, so why am I getting this?
