The problem appears to be as described in that stackoverflow link. You may be calling the managed Dll directly from the installer, Windows is expecting an unmanaged Dll, and so it describes the Dll as corrupt.
It might be worthwhile figuring out why the standard StopServices doesn't always work. It might be that the Services are slow to stop. Sometimes that code in a service can be less than optimal if it doesn't follow the protocol nicely, and if necessary explicitly say that it needs more time to shut down.
