If what you are seeing is what everyone has been talking about, the images will fail to display correctly with [some versions of] IE, but the files themselves are not corrupted. You should be able to see them fine using Mozilla. If these are GIF files, I would check to see that the client is not using FTP in TEXT mode, since this will corrupt the images (but more immediately). Computers are remarkably stupid, but sometimes clients are worse. It's possible they are uploading the files again without your knowledge (check the log files). There is no server-side process that I am aware of (short of a failing HD) which would cause the files to become corrupted in situ.
