HELP!

Somehow my monitor (noname VGA) just started ghsoting on me.  It is
getting steadily worse in the past couple of hours or so.  It is very
noticable on text, less so on graphics.

it is appearing aas a 1 pizel blue ghost to the right and below the text.

Any suggestions I can do, besided hauling it in somewhere?  Yes, I've
tried smacking it, it didn't help.

No fiddling with the brightness/contrast/position controls helped either.

*checks Bible on monitor prices*
*shudders*

I hope it isn't dying on me.
