Why does corruption occur with files on a computer? Well, there can be many reasone - read/write errors on the drive are the most likely, especially with files that are written to and read from frequently. Program errors can also cause this (which is why I've asked customers experiencing issues related to databases to try to help by submitting confirmed corrupted database files, so that we can evaluate them...).
These kinds of corruptions can occur with virtually any program - a Google search for 'trash preferences' will turn up info on how to do this for any number of applications.
