Update (2011/03/15): Just installed the release version of IE9 (64 Bit) and monitor profiles are still not supported!
I was thrilled to learn that Microsoft IE 9 RC supports some aspects of color management, e.g. images with attached color profiles (like Adobe RGB) will be converted to sRGB before being displayed.
Sadly though, if you have a wide-gamut monitor as many photo professionals do, the color calibration of your monitor is ignored. This is strange since even the rather basic Windows 7 Photo Viewer supports color management.
The comparison below shows that without the conversion the image will look much more reddish (left) than the correct version (right).
So it seems I will have to stay with Firefox for a while ...
PS: If you know of any "hidden switch" to enable true color management in IE 9 please let me know!
