on the screen even after the monitor has been turned off.
Unlike a CRT monitor, a LCD monitors image persistence is
not permanent. To erase an image ghost, turn the monitor off
for as long as the image was displayed. If an image was on
the monitor for an hour and a ghost of that image remains, the

To avoid this problem, use a screen saver whenever the
screen is idle.
