Wow. How embarrassing this must be.
It is always a good practice to zip the files and not send them as jpg or any other photo format.
Which internet protection do you use (antivirus, firewall, etc.)
I use Zone Alarm Suite and I never had any extra files from trusted friends e-mail messages like your daughter had.
Try to contact your mail ISP and complain.

Try to send the same message to your e-mail address several times and see what happens.
If you get the same photos, then it could be something generated from your PC. Were they ads porno or just pictures?
Also try the zip method.
Search for all the *.jpg or other file extensions files on your PC. You would be surprised what you might find.
I haven't heard of AVIRA till now. But you should do a rescan for viruses to cleanup your PC, perhaps install another internet suite if nothing is found.
