CPU Pad

Ok, so while cleaning a CPU of mine, I accidentally rubbed off the damn HSF pad on one of the corners (Athlon XP 2000+). Any suggestions on firmly reattaching it to the ceramic? Thanks in advance, Ian.

Edit: Here's some pictures for those who need a visual.
 
If it was mine I'd replace it. Those pads stabilize the HS. Just go to a craft store and pick up some plastic dots that have adhesive on one side. Or you might be able to find something similar at Radio Shack.

I replaced the NB HS on my IC7-G which has an exposed NB core and four dots were included with the Swiftech MCX159P.
