I saw that link earlier that allowed you so spot dead/stuck pixels.... I decided not to run it for this exact reason! If there is one I don't want to know it is there!
Try Dans Dead Pixel Fixer, run it on the area's where the dead pixels are.
To use, just run the EXE, set the amount of time you want it to run (a few hours is good) and click one of the Small, Medium and Large buttons.
These buttons create an appropriately sized window that flashes the RGB colors which you should put over the location of the dead pixel and leave there for a few hours.
Warning: Be very careful when using this tool as it can trigger epilepsy attacks. Make sure noone in the house/business is a epileptic.

I read up quite a bit on fixing stuck pixels, that flashing thingy can apparently MAKE pixels turn stuck as well as fixing them, so beware. Try get one that you can resize to fit just over the affected pixel/s.
I think that dans one can be resized.
Other methods are all massaging the area and shaking the screen like was mentioned. Do a lot of googling and you'll find lots of methods. But AFAIK they all have a risk of creating more dead pixels.
