7 years old? I think you'd be better off getting a new one. The 15" ones are cheap enough. Or if price is an object, get a referbed one.

To me, it sounds like the monitor is "burned" (I'm assuming a few things here). When you leave your monitor on for long, long periods of time on the same screen with nothing changed, it tends to burn that image onto the screen. In your case, if you've been using it for 7 years, it may just be all worn out in places.
