Right-click (or control-click) on one of the icons in question, and select 'get info'. There is a section in there that says 'Open With' which will show the default program for that file type. If it's different from what the user expects, this could be the problem.

The main issue here is what exactly the user means by "corrupted Icons" Can she open the files or not? Is she actually referring to corrupted files? Programs? Qucklook in 10.5 and 10.6 can affect the way an icon looks, sometimes now they look like a small version of the file, sometimes they look like a regular program icon.
