    Burn-in is no longer a problem on modern plasmas. Now it's only image-retention, and new plasmas have such slow phosphor wear and such great anti-image-retention technologies in place that you really have to try to get it to ghost images. If you have an old plasma that has burn it, nothing is going to get rid of it. If you have a newer plasma that has some image-retention on it, just keeps using the image cleanser until it goes away. If it never goes away, you have permanent burn-in.

    If you're leaving the screen on for a long enough time that it will burn in, then you should just turn it off when not using it since plasma screens are major power-wasters.

    If Jscreenfix is not working, then you're probably hosed.
