I've been using Inkscape (open source vector program) to view .ai files.  As of version 0.47 it has the ability to import them and has worked on everything I've tried so far.

Excellent - Freeware, shareware or commercial? Do you have a link?

It's free to use open source.  The main site is here http://www.inkscape.org/ and the versions have been getting updated regularly.

Speaking of Inkscape: I have a bunch of SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) images I'd like to upload, but file type isn't supported. Can the .svg extension be added?

Still not working, I'm afraid. Maybe the MIME type (image/svg) needs to be added?
