I'm getting this as well -- images I upload to Facebook have a blue tinge.

When I import the JPEG into the Gimp, it says the JPEG contains a colour
profile named "sRGB", and asks whether I want to convert it or keep it.  Both
options result in the same blue-tinged image.

Krita doesn't prompt me like the Gimp does, but it takes a little while to open
the image, which suggests to me that it's silently "converting" the profile. 
The same blue tinge results.

The workaround I've been using is to convert my JPEG to BMP using ShowFoto,
then convert the BMP back to JPEG before uploading.  I'm guessing that the
removal of the colour profile at the BMP stage is the key.  Using PNG as an
intermediate format instead of BMP does not fix the problem, presumably because
the colour profile is copied into the PNG?
