Is there a good tutorial on how to allow the public to upload images
to a server (using PHP) safely (without viruses, hacks, trojan horses,
etc...)?
There's no way for you to guarantee that the files that were uploaded
are clean. You could use something like clamav to scan the files
against known virus signatures, which will find viruses that clamav
knows about, but if you are allowing people to upload executable files
there is no way to guarantee they are clean. There are steps you can
take to try and protect your own machine, but those concerns are
(mostly) separate from concerns about viruses.
