FireFox and Chrome causing ugly shadow detail on online images with Windows 8 pro only.

FireFox and Chrome are unusable for critical photo viewing with Windows 8 Pro because they give harsh shadows and oversaturation in many of my uploaded photos as well as those from others. IE is fine. I don't see this with XP or Vista or with my iPad or any software programs on my main computer. This is not a color space issue, my workflow is in sRGB and the exif shows that. I see this on Zenfolio and Flickr.

Here is a couple of screen captures. The right side is the correct looking image through IE and the left from Chrome. Both sides will look bad if I use Chrome to view this link. Anyone else come across this yet with W8 or W8 Pro?

I'm assuming you do not see this problem in Windows 7 (I can only test in Windows 7 unless I cruise by my local Microsoft store).

I understand that you are not attributing this to the browser's color management feature, but would you mind toggling it on and off to see whether the setting makes any difference? This add-on is the most convenient way to do it: Color Management.

Can you post a link to such an image?

That can be caused by a problem with the color profile for your display monitor or color profiles embedded in images.
You can disable color management to test that.
You can set the gfx.color_management.mode pref to 0 on the about:config page to disable Color Management.
You need to close and restart Firefox to make the change effective.

Problem solved. I turned off Color management and now the images look correct or very close. Before I was trying the other two options. Why would that be the case? or is this another Windows bug? So for some reason I need to have no color management with FF to match what I see on my current computer, older computers and other devices. The problem I see is that I had to add it as an extension in order to turn it off. Other new users won't know this.
