If you get a link posted on your computer screen called "sneak peak at new Jedward video," DO NOT OPEN IT!.... it is actually a sneak peak at the new Jedward video....

I assume it is an old CRT type nad not and LCD/LED?

Do you have speakers near your screen?

The most common cause I have found over the years is unshielded speakers close to the monitor.

If it is a Portable then it is not a CRT screen and therefore not prone to magnetic fields and no degaussing is possible.

It has gone to be repaired.

and it is being held up with 3 tins of baked beans
