Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
good luck...I've heard of "massaging" the area with a cutip cotton swab thing. Basically rub the area gently with it. But I've also heard of breaking more pixels around it by doing this. So its a toss up. If you wanna risk breaking more pixels then be my guest. I lightly tried this on mine and stopped because it wasnt working and I sure as hell wasnt gona use mre pressure on it...
