Hopefully this isn't getting too tiresome ...

Here is his last response:

"A few thoughts:

1.  Using Microsoft’s RAW viewer, these CR2 files look just fine on
the same computer.   The same files also look good on another
computer.
2.  I also clicked on all the “reset to factory settings” buttons I
could find.  No luck.  Is there a general “color space” setting
somewhere that I can reset to default?
3.  Thinking that the messed up settings could be in the catalog, I
started a new one and imported pictures afresh.  No luck."

Thanks!
