Ghost of image burnt on iMac

[ditzy]

There is a slight ghost of an image burnt on my iMac's screen. Luckily it's at the side of the screen rather than right in the middle. But am wondering if there is a way to get rid of it.

It should just fade away over a short period of time. I had some image burn-in on my ACD today and after a few minutes it had gone.

I believe a way to speed up the fade-out process is to switch off the display. You could sleep the iMac for a bit and hopefully the burn-in will be gone when you wake it up.
