There are numerous posts on Drupal.org forums about .htaccess including:
http://drupal.org/node/65825
http://drupal.org/node/67244

Also try disabling 'Options none' in .htaccess as discussed in  
http://drupal.org/node/68805 - that worked for me when I could not see the  
images.

ditto here - it is strange
Also ensure that the file permissions of the entire files hierarchical  
structure is set to rw-rw-rw  In extreme cases I have set it to  
rwx-rwx-rwx for everybody to get something working first!

Hope it helps
