Dean, my profiled monitor also appears slightly pink. However, it 
also displays images in Photoshop properly, in that they appear very 
close to the prints I make, which is what monitor profiling is all 
about.

No, the profile created by the monitor profiling software is for the 
monitor itself, not for image editing programs. There should be 
something in the instructions for the monitor profiling package that 
explains what to do with the monitor profile. As I recall, the 
monitor profiling software that I use automatically places the new 
monitor profile in the correct directory and tells Windows to use it 
forever thereafter.
