    Depends on how blue and what light you are shooting in, but you should check the camera's White Balance. Normally, it would be set to Auto where the camera attempts (usually quite accurately) to determine the colour balance, but if it has got set to one of the built-in presets (for example, tungsten, fluourescent) you can get wacky results if the colour of the ambient light doesn't match that expected.

    Blue on the camera screen or on your computer screen?
    If the camera see Marks comments (above). If on your computer screen, check the calibration.

    If your computer screen is odd colours at other times too, consider replacing the cable from the computer to the screen. I doubt this is the case though so I would start with the white balance.

    Accidentally optimised image to custom, with some strange colour hue adjustment set?
