Thanks for leading me over to this issue; I had already looked through to see if there were any other similar issues listed, but for whatever reason (probably me just being sleep deprived) I just came up short. For the most part my issue seems fairly in line with the others. The only thing really of note though is it seems as though their clients had a more solid yellow filter over there's where as mine appeared to lean more on the side of green.

#6 on windows, the default system color profile is sRGB, and it does not draw with a tint.  Your monitor might not be sRGB though, it might have much better color support than that, and so it is natural for users to install the color profile of their monitor.

An explicit user action is required to change the system color profile e.g., to install your monitor's color profile.  So perhaps you changed the system color profile, or someone else did it for you?

Anyho, a problem (users will get one of a green, yellow, or cyan tint) can arise when the color profile they install is invalid.  Windows does not warn users if they install an invalid color profile.

The document [1] shows how to get your old colors back, by showing you how to reset the Windows system color profile to the default (sRGB) using the Windows Color Management dialog.

Color profiles on Windows are stored in

   C:\Windows\system32\spool\drivers\color

If you could attach the color profile you were using (it's either an .icc or .icm file) to this bug report, we could look at it and figure out why yours paints with a green tint.
