CS4/Windows 7 - Images appear too red (and I'm seeing red)

This probably isn't specifically a Photoshop issue, but some other Windows users may know more than I do as I have no idea how to resolve it.

When I open an image in Photoshop it has a very reddish/pinkish hue to it. Say, for instance, if I save an image from the internet and open it in PS, the file looks a lot more red in PS than it did on my web browser.

I noticed that when I go to Save for Web & Devices the original file looks like it should do (without the reddish hue), whereas the preview of the new save file differs depending on the Preview mode selected - 'Monitor Color' looks fine, 'Windows (No Color Management)' has the reddish hue.

Also, I've noticed that thumbnails of images in Windows Explorer look fine, but when I open them in Windows Photo Viewer the cursed reddish hue appears again!

Does anyone know what I should do to fix this? Photoshop is pretty much useless to me at the moment unless I can see accurate colours...
