Like the previous posts mentioned, if you have Adobe Photoshop you have a program called Adobe Gamma which you can use to calibrate your monitor. Also like one of the previous post mentioned if you have a higher-end video card then included with this videocard should be a monitor calibration software.
If you are an Apple OSX user then there is a built in monitor calibration tool which you can use by going to the apple icon > displays > Color > Calibrate.
Ultimately though if you really want to be concious about color calibration and you want to synchronize your monitor to your output i.e. your prints then I suggest you go here x-rite http://www.xritephoto.com/download_files/products/color_mgmt_sys.pdf

If you are using Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, it should have installed a program called Adobe Gamma on your computer to calibrate your monitor. (Just search on your computer in the systems control panel for it).
If you have an LCD monitor or don't use Photoshop, there is a hardware/software package called ColorVision Spyder2. You can find this at www.colorvision.com. This program works with standard and LCD monitors.
