Roberto,

Check the monitor's control panel and look for a button labeled DEGAUSS.
If you have one, turn on the monitor, wait 2-3 minutes and then push the
button.

If you do not have the button, then you can purchase a DEGAUSSing coil from a
television repair shop.  It should come with instructions for it's use, but it
is simple
enough to work.  Turn on the monitor, wait 2-3 minutes then place the
DEGAUSSing
coil flat on the center of the glass screen   Turn on the electric for the coil
and slowly
pull the coil away from the monitor screen in a straight line.  Try to keep the
coil
parallel to the screen face at all times.  When you have a 3-4 foot distance
between the
coil and the screen, then you can turn it off.
