Try submitting to www.virustotal.com - they will run 32 different AV
engines against them.

You can send them to me if you like - only gmail will screen them out
if it detects a virus. Still, that would be an answer to your question
:)

(Have you verified that they are in fact JPEGs and not some other image format?)

cheers,
