Could it be that you just *think* it's a perfectly legit jpeg?  If you
use M$ OSes, there are some apps that will create a file and just kind
of fudge the spec about how a file of that format is put together.
(This can happen on other OSes, too, it's just that in the Mac, Linux,
and BSD communities that sort of thing gets weeded out faster.)

Then, even though the pic is readable in some programs, others will
handle the errors differently.  If this were the case, opening and
re-saving the file in something that can read it, but saves jpg files
properly, would fix the problem.  gimp.org is one suggestion.
