Hi,
I noticed that when I open CS4 Bridge, in the column to the right under Color Profile, pictures in some of my folders say "opRGB". Usually it says Adobe RGB (1998). Where is the opRGB coming from

Thank you for your time.

It has something to do with the EXIF spec, not sure what it was.
I think it had something to do with wheter your profile is embedded or just marked as it.
Its nothing to worry about though

Just curious, but what is "opRGB"? I've not seen this before. Is this in the EXIF for a camera RAW image, or from some other file type?

If this is in camera RAW, you might want to reset your camera's settings to see if this happens again on new images.

'opRGB' stands for "optional RGB." It is a relatively new standard. Here is a link that provides some technical details -- opRGB link.
