Help needed with PS7

I've managed to change a setting in PS7 so that, for example, when I select Curves the colour picker defaults and I need to press Esc to clear it.


Any idea what I've changed and how to change it back?


Thanks...

    The complete overkill fix would be:
    Kill your preferences file
    Hold down Ctrl + Shift + Alt (on Windows) or Command + Option + Shift (on a Mac) immediately after launching PS. You'll get a dialog asking if you want to delete the preferences file.
    This should fix the problem, but it will also take everything back to the Adobe default configuration.

    Hi Cletus,

    I went for the manual search of psp files and deleted the preferences file. I should have just done that straight away as the time I wasted trying to find what was wrong was a futile search.

    As Adobe say on their site "Sometimes Photoshop can exhibit odd/erratic/weird behaviour." and this seems to have been the case here.
