could i just ask a question here?

Okay i've profiled my monitor using eye one display 2 and basically i shoot everything in sRGB as well as do my processing in it. Photoshop wise and ACDsee pro i've managed to adjust my pictures to the exact colors i want.On ACDsee pro, everything is fine and dandy, i can see the exact colors because they're ICC-aware-note i am working in sRGB at all times.

But when it comes to displaying the pictures in say, windows picture viewer or on non icc aware internet browsers such as firefox and IE, which are supposed to recognize the sRGB profile only-there is a complete shift of colors even when i embed the sRGB profile or not in those pictures. why is this so?

Other misc info, i've got the monitor profile running under my ATI card under card mgt, windows supposedly is running the sRGB profile. My cs2 is set to sRGB. what really gives? anyway for me to remedy this?
