A servername may contain a backslash e.g. Server1\SQL1. When this data is returned from the URL e.g. $server = $_GET['server']; The name is returned as Server1\\SQL1, so the search fails.
Sounds like magic_quotes_gpc is enabled. Disable it.
I've tried using a regular expression to remove one of the backslashes: $server = ereg_replace("\\", "\", $server);
There is a function called stripslashes() that does this. Also, you should not use a regular expression function when matching literal strings. Regular expressions are for matching patterns. Use something like str_replace().
