Default Pixel aspect ratio for widescreen

What should Pixel aspect ratio for wide screen be set at. I've never used a wide screen monitor so I'm at a total loss on this one.

This question as been posed by a user of an Acer 19inch wide screen Laptop The screen is set to 1440 by 900, the native resolution for this laptop.

Images when viewed in PS CS2 are stretched in the vertical plane. By setting the aspect ratio to PAL 1.066 the image is then correct. however this setting has to be made for each image opened.
Is there a way to make this setting the default, or is the problem elsewhere.
