Vizio 47" LCD showing Red Pixels, Help!?

My Vizio is showing Red pixels mainly where there should be a dark background. Or, if someone is wearing dark clothing its show as numerous red pixels. Its almost lie a red "snow" affect. We replaced the Main Board but no luck. Any suggestions??

Update:

Just to clarify- This is not just one pixel its the whole screen that occassionally goes red. Almost like the "White Snow" effect on a tv except its "Red Snow".

    Sounds like a dead/dying crystal/pixel. You really cant fix it and be cost effective. Its cheaper to either buy a new one or live with it. Sorry.
