Thanks so much, Dunk. The reason I went for LCD was that it has 1/5 power of CRT, no radiation and no other toxins. I didn't realise it had mercury though! My old monitor is 7 years old and probably emitting high voltage etc and at the stage where it needs a good bang to come on sometimes!

I will look up the link <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> I was SO stressed last night when I read about this. Thanks for replying. I work about 8 hours on the PC from home (run websites and am a student) aswell as use the PC to email friends etc. I know the PC isn't responsible for most of my health problems, however, as I had them long before I had a PC. It might be contributing to them of late, though.
