This can happen with certain editing tools that inject code into the image file that is detected as possible malicious code injections.

The nest release will have an option in the setup file to disable the image malicious code check, however if you do you should also tell users NOT to use Internet Explorer which can be exploited by malicious code within images to access to the users forum account.
