I just received my HP LP2475W and overall its a great monitor. However, I did notice a stuck pixel that is blue on a black background. It is not noticeable on any other background but is clearly blue on a black background and can be seen from close up. Based on this, I assume that it is a stuck pixel and not a dead pixel.

If possible, I would like to fix this without having to RMA the entire monitor. Do you guys have any suggestions? I'd like to fix it and at the same time don't want to cause any damage to the monitor.

I've read about massaging the pixel (but I'm hesistant) and about this java test that rapidly turns the pixels on and off and should fix it. Is it safe to run the java screen test for 5 minutes?

Thanks for the help.
 
It's safe to run indefinitely, basically. Only plasma's have burn in problems.
