Fix pixels on LCDs & burn-in on plasmas

Here's a program that claims to fix stuck pixels on LCD's and burn-in on plasma screens. I dont have any such screens, but if someone does try it out, I would be interested to hear the results.

JScreenFix

It doesn't work. Tried it out on a stuck red pixel on a monitor that my brother got for xmas two years ago.

Re: Fix pixels on LCDs & burn-in on plasmas

I had some slight burn-in, or, rather, image persistence on my Dell 2001FP LCD screen a couple months ago. I switched to an plain white screensaver with a delay of 1 minute. Left the monitor off over night for a couple nights and the image was gone. Heh, basically what the wikipedia article states.

Re: Fix pixels on LCDs & burn-in on plasmas

I tried a similar program on my DS Lite and couldn't get rid of my red pixel. Or maybe it was actually two stuck red pixels next to each other because it seems smaller now. I've also tried massaging the screen but the plastic gets in the way.
