Have you tried to degauss it? (demagnetize)
And how about different refresh rate?

Also making sure that there isn't anything liike speakers/electronic devices too close to the tube or cables.
You may also be a victim of ripple through your power lines - doesn't happen often, but I've heard that it can cause the same symptoms

Would a simple surge supressor help him if so?
