Hi Gabe -
A couple things - would it be possible to share a code snippet that
represents what you are doing on the client side? It's always easier to
track these things down if we can recreate it locally.
Also, in what manner are the files corrupted?
Finally, what other posts have you seen referring to this? That might
help pull it all together...
Thanks,
-Eric
