Hey everyone.
Got the latest firefox update today (3.5.2) and everything is fine on it except that is displaying certain colours wrong.
Examples -
http://i26.tinypic.com/k2cxly.jpg
This is how the image should be displayed and how it used to be(copied from IE)
http://i28.tinypic.com/2v8nzuf.jpg
But this is how the image is displaying and its getting annoying.
It's not just that site either, VT's 5000+ Picture is affected and numerous other sites I go on, any advice?
I have already tried to reinstall.

It would maybe help if you provided a link to the "affected" websites.

Its more than 20 sites I've visited now, it seems to be a grey colour that is causing the problem not the actual sites them self.
The VT 5000+ face is another example...

Well, Firefox changed the way it handled colours (Yay way to break the web, stupid Mozilla), so you'll have to configure this browser option:
gfx.color_management_rendering_intent = -1
To get to that just visit about:config and filter down to gfx.. Alternatively just use a good browser (http://snapshot.opera.com/windows/Opera_1000_1708_in.exe) or visit sites that are built correctly (and don't utilise colour profiles in their images).

Chrome.... lol
However, I apologise that I didn't give you the correct setting, please change gfx.color_management.mode to 0. You can also disable this new feature by using gfx.color_management.enabled set to false.

I couldn't find that on the config page I'm afraid.

Use gfx.color_management.mode then.
Make sure you restart your browser after you change/save this.

If it's on 0, the behaviour hasn't changed since Firefox 3 as you've just disabled the new colour management feature... Did you restart your browser??
You should have settings:
gfx.color_management.mode = 0
gfx.color_management.rendering_intent = -1

Managed to get it to work, didn't realise I had a second window of firefox open hence why it didn't restart.
Thanks very much all fixed now :D
