The versions Photoshop Elements have a limit on which cameras they will deal with and is defined by the Camera Raw Plugin:

V9 latest plugin 6.5 supports K20D, K-5, K7 (and other earlier)
v10 6.7 as V9
v11 7.2 K-30, K5ii, K5iiS


Which version of Elements do you have?
I'm using PE 10, and it happily opens my K5II RAW files using Camera Raw Plugin 6.6. Are you suggesting it shouldn't?
Have a look at: Adobe Raw Plugin which says minimum version 7.3 for a K5II and Elements 10 will only work up to v6.7

It would seem a bit daft for their latest version to strip out support for previous cameras just so that the latest update supports only the K-30, K5ii, and K5iiS.
There was a word missing from the V11 line ...
v11 7.2 adds K-30, K5ii, K5iiS

The full compatibility list has to be work between teh link above and Raw/Apps compatibility list.

Just processing the JPG images you've put up it looks like the Red and Blue channels are swapped
(Used a Channel Mixer in PS)

You haven't said what the original image actually was - DNG, PEF, JPG.

I'm not even 100% sure which camera you have! Though looking at your gallery it looks like a K5II.

I've seen the purple straggly line and seriously bad colour appear in Picasa when it wasn't up to date - and its RAW conversion was off. I had this issue with Picasa and the K5IIs until Google got its act (nearly) together!

More info would be good

Thanks. I looked at the Adobe site, and they are wrong.

Odd really as it's their product, but, as said, PE10 with Camera Raw 6.6 is very happy with the RAW output from my K5II.

Maybe you're version of Picasa is an old one. Upgrading Picasa to a newer version will likely solve the problem. I've had the same issue when I bought my K20D and then with my K-7. The version of Picasa I had wasn't compatible with the new cameras.

I just ran both images through an action I use for infrared, which swaps the red and blue channels, and they came out looking completely normal, so the red and blue channels are definitely swapped in both of these files. It looks more like a software problem than a sensor problem.
