    Do you by any chance have a Sony CRT? If so, these horizontal lines (one or two - depending on screen size) CAN NOT be removed... They are part of the aperture grill system (series of thin wires separating each pixel) on smaller CRTs you will see one horizontal line (sort of a shadow) in the middle. On larger CRTs you will see two lines. These wires are placed horizontally to help maintain equal spacing between the vertical wires.

    BTW, Sony's patent on aperture grill technology has expired - so you can also experience this on other manufacturers CRTs being sold today...

    If in doubt, Google it.
