As I recall, I had a similar problem with my Viewsonic monitor and sent a file to one of the Datacolr folks here.  It was determined that it was my monitor.  Switched monitors, updated software and have no issues to date.

Using Spyder 3 pro and latest software.

Thanks

I know some people have said that the get shocked after the calibration results, as they've been used to blue tint, but this is just something else. The grays are green-gray, the blues are lighter blues, and the color magenta is almost inexistant ( i really have to pump up the colour balance to magenta in ps if i want it ) and this calibration matches my prints even worse than the old one ( that was on uncalibrated monitor ).
