[GT4 BOOSTER]

[GT4 BOOSTER]

Doh! I was going to say whatever you do don't squash it... They normally escape after a while by themselves if you don't kill them :) Oh well, with any luck it'll fall down to the bottom of the screen once its dried out a bit :P

inside it?

thats its twin , !Removed! hell . spooky

[martin_longbow]

put some more dirt on the screen and you wont notice it

[GT4 BOOSTER]

kinda hard when the TOC background is white, to not notice it

Just like in The Ring with the fly in the videotape....

You havent watched "The Tape" have you?

[GT4 BOOSTER]

I had this with my last monitor, lucky I'd already set it up for RMA, so got a nice brand spanking new monitor here, w/o a fly inside!

If you hadn't killed it you could have opened multimap and given it directions out. Usually works.

I guess they either get in the vents at the back of the screen and work their way round or just get in between the frame and the edge of the screen itself if you really want to know :P Only happens on TFT screens, my brother had quite a colony in his for a while.

CRTs are sealed and seem immune to bug invasion... They'd get irradiated pretty fast if they did manage to get inside anyway.

That would do my head in mate. I've just bought a 42" Plasma screen and a box load of fly spray

Would it not be better to introduce some "small" spiders.............to catch the flies
