What to do if your monitor is damaged by a magnet (the screen that is)

How to fix your monitor if some idiot puts a magnet on it illustrates the effect when someone intentionally or accidentally (or just for the fun of it) puts a magnet on your CRT monitors viewing screen. Also tells you how to fix it, so if you have a tucked away monitor that has suffered the same fate....you could try to bring it to good use by trying the simplest solution. Fighting fire by fire, or in this case, fighting magnet by a similar or stronger magnet.
