My monitor is starting to fail. Shopping for an upgrade I ran across interesting (short) articles about improvements in color management in FireFox. It can respect ICC profiles in displayed pictures, and the articles describe this and tell how to turn it on:
-for tagged images (embedded ICC profile): 2;
- set it for all images and graphics to be color managed: 1;
- how to turn off color management: 0.

The code enhancements made the browser stop dragging when CM is turned on -- big speedup. I tried it before but turned it off. It's on by default in 3.5.

It's also possible to set a default color space by putting in the path to a profile directly:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\color\AdobeRGB.icm

Very geeky, very cool. Important read if you edit images and graphics for the web.
