If there's only a few, it means that there's some sort of minor
glitch between source and destination. 

If there's a lot, it *MIGHT* mean someone's trying a man-in-the-middle
attack.
    
All it really means is that some packets were bad - the checksum 
(a means of verifying packet correctness) didn't match with what
it should have been.
