Tools for trying to fix a fixed pixel on a laptop screen?

[EvilYoda]

So I just received my sister's new laptop and there's a pixel that's stuck on red...I know I've seen apps/tools that try to help you fix it, can anybody suggest something?

Thanks!

This is the only way I have run into. A red pixel is probably stuck, and this technique may work.

Thanks...I've found and tried a few to no avail...it's just one pixel and I doubt she cares, but still.
