Or you can disable color management in GIMP; or assign 'standard srgb' color profile to the image. To be correct, however, you probably should convert the image to 'standard srgb' color profile. (the Image->Mode menu allows you to assign and convert to profiles) To be completely clear: GIMP is probably showing the image correctly, while your browser is wrongly assuming that the image is stored with standard srgb color profile.
