Also reduce the resolution on the monitor and reduce the refresh rate to 60Hz, the lower both are, the less strain the monitor takes.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Windows usually chooses the 'best' refresh rate for your resolution. If 60Hz is too straining on the eyes, try 70, 72, 75 or 85Hz whichever *just* meets your needs.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

...I guess it's time for a new monitor.

Find some friends who have "useless" computer junk. Right now I have a 17" CRT monitor running 1280x768 @ 85Hz I got for free from my uncle (which he got for free). It works great and the only flaw is you can see an image imprinted on the screen when bright colors are shown (this was probably caused by someone who had a constant image on for way too long). If you decide to go the brand new-route, you should be able to get a good new 17" CRT monitor for ~$100 and an 17" LCD for $200.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
