I would stick to the web settings then use your ICC's in your output profiles. I know with mine I have to lighten some of my darker shots by 10% or so. An example is the link above. The image is just the way I like it on the web but when I print it it gets too dark. Lighten it by 10% and its identical. This took some adjusting in PS output profiles along with the lightening but now it works great. Another issue that you may have is Win ME. I hate to say it but it is the most unstable OS minilimp has ever put out. I would suggest Win2k or Win'98SE. ME could be a very large part of your problems including the lightness/darkness issue of your monitor you have had in the past.
