Default Lightroom and Underexposed Shots...

Quick question about LR- I have LR 3, and the past 2 times I've imported into LR, my photos are way underexposed. On the Import screen, they are good, but once they go into the program and I click to see the large shot, the exposure changes in front of my eyes. I have been messing with things I don't understand in LR, and I'm wondering if I changed something to automatically change exposure upon import. The exposure on my camera is set to 0, and only the last 2 imports have done this. It's an easy fix with sliders, but an extra step. Anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

In the develop module, hit reset in the bottom right hand corner.
That will take it back to the original. (if it changes, you may have a preset set. Scratch around the presets menu on the left)
