The search results probably timed out. I got a truckload of hits by just searching for stuck pixels.

Thank you, I actually found a widget dedicated to flashing colors in an attempt to fix a stuck pixel (yes by using the search function lol). Its kind of working, looks a little fainter now.

Great! If you think it's working continue using it. It can take a while for it to get unstuck.

Link to widget-
http://www.apple.com/downloads/dashb.../pixelfix.html

Link to a full screen version
http://sourceforge.net/projects/stucksweep

I feel like it isn't working but then again the stuck sweep says to run it for an extremely long period of time. Also, there are a bunch of other methods on Wikipedia.
