Product Description:

Over time, your LCD or CRT monitor will gradually fade in brightness and contrast. This fading is inevitable, because the backlights for LCD screens eventually fade, and the photo-reactive substrate on CRT monitors eventually degrades.

ScreenCleaner Pro rectifies this situation by altering the gamma of your monitor to compensate for monitor degradation, so it will look as good as new. Don't toss out that old monitor, just run ScreenCleaner Pro on it, and watch your old monitor gain a new life.

Simply let ScreenCleaner Pro run in the background, and it will automatically analyze your monitor's gamma curve and relative luminescence. After enough calibration data has been collected, ScreenCleaner Pro will adjust your monitor to like-new condition.

The analyzation/calibration process can take up to 10 minutes, but you can work normally while ScreenCleaner Pro is analyzing your monitor; simply let it run in the background.

What's new in this version:

Still a Joke.

Sure. This program makes a good April Fool's joke. No one is denying that.

But, it is also a VERY effective software program for pixel-level cleansing of tired old monitors, computer displays that have simply lost their lustre. The actual mechanism, the actual chemistry and physics of the screen restoration varies from monitor to monitor. (CRTs are very different technologies than LCDs, afterall) But most agree that before and after tests conclusively demonstrate that ScreenCleaner Pro is the best software available for the restoration of most commercially available computer monitors today.

After just one cleaning cycle, I noticed huge improvements in color, saturation, hue, dimensionality, and even screen resolution and refresh rate. Further cycles seemed to deepen the cleansing effect and brought out even more vivid colors and sharper more defined shapes and edges. Photos of people and nature looked so real, it became breathtaking. Best of all, ScreenCleaner Pro even improves the performance of brand new monitors. Imagine that! How much more can you ask from a simple little piece software?

ScreenCleaner Pro is a nominee for the coveted Softest Software of the Year award. Hats off to Ambrosia. Doesn't get much better than this.

From Ambrosia's forum site:

"Yes Screen Cleaner Pro was an April Fools Day joke that Ambrosia had released upon the world over a year ago. If only we had known it would circle the globe a few zillion times and come back and haunt our very existence."
