As far as I know the .x file just contains your moves for the current turn. Deleting the .x file and redoing your turn should solve the problem.

Anyone have any idea why my .x files are corrupted, and how to solve it?

Stars! itself does not have problems with the .x-file? If not than open your turn, delete the .x-file, save+submit again and you have a brand new .x-file without redoing all your orders.
A reason for corruption might be save+submitting a lot, although AutoHosts still accepts such turns but some orders are not carried out, so different problem since you don't get the notice that the turn is corrupt.
Another reason is because of a hack?
Oh, and don't you dare to freeze Autohost!!!

Maybe more something for the Bar since the question is not about strategy, tactics, ...

Be sure to close any file-sharing or music-streaming programs before you generate your turn, that seems to corrupt .x files too.

Hmm, I had something similar. That message that I got was, that I was a Usurper and blabla the rest. We went back to the last year that went well, I deleted my x-file, made a small adjustment in one of the queues (+ 1 mine or something) and submitted/uploaded. After the regen everything worked fine.
Maybe worth a try (if the gamehost and the rest of the players agree). Playing on with a corrupted racefile is no fun anyways

I had a similar problem at one point, with stars insisting that my .x files were from the wrong game. Turned out I had somehow corrupted my .xy file. Once I downloaded a fresh copy from autohost things worked fine.
Hope this helps!
