Anybody know what this error means?
 
This is not necessary an error message, you will need to check your SQLServer logs before and after this message.

XPstar.dll is the Enterprise manager extended stored procedure dll used by EM to run extended stored procedures.

spid 7 is the Id of the process that is using the exended stored procedure in my case spid7 referes to the SQL Agent - alert engine.

In many cases, SQL server is just logging what process is using what external DLL. On my SQLServer (7.0) I have many entries that read for example:

Using 'xpstar.dll' version '2000.02.08' to execute extended stored procedure 'xp_sqlagent_monitor'.

indicating the use of the extended stored procedure.

Hope this helps,

Chris Dukes
