our settings define how Photoshop converts your images from one working space to another. For example, say you choose North America Prepress 2 from the Settings drop-down list in the Color Settings dialog box. In this case, the default for CMYK is U.S. web Coated (SWOP) v2, which is a specific CMYK setting for a web printing press and coated paper, among other things.
"There is one called USWebCoatedSWOP.icc. Is that the same thing?"
Yes, that is the same profile. Profiles have an internal and an external name and they're not always the same. If you double click on that profile and open it in the ColorSync Utility, you'll see the more commonly used name there.
"Also, can someone tell me where the ICC profiles that shipped with my Creative Suite programs reside on my hard drive?"
