Why did you have a magent to the monitor? Sorry, but I can only think of degaussing it, or leaving it off for a while.

RMA it?

phew... i got the magnet far away from it, let the monitor sit for 5 minutes, and degaussing worked! i was afraid i was going to have to get a new monitor (this one is past warranty).
