the preview reflects how these files looked when they are openned through camera raw plugin and thats what i meant really- the conversion doesn’t happen in the bridge- it happens in camera raw- i guess. but i see the ‘problem’ before even openning the files- as if the corrections are appled somehow automatically. to clarify: raw files that where processed before, in the older camera raw (in PS CS not CS2) look completely different now and i do not understand why.
What camera are you using and are you using the latest RAW plugin for it? What does the image look like if you open the RAW file with the camera’s own software? Have you re-calibrated your monitor since installing CS2 from CS?

I think that I understand what the OP is saying, which is that when you use CS2 to browse some folder it applies corrections to the images such that, for example, you cannot easily judge an individual images worth, in terms of at least the exposure. So in other words you would like to have the browser act like a contact sheet so you can make some judgement of exposure etc.when you are in the browser, but instead the browser itself is adjusting things so that it is difficult to make those judgements.
