Olympus Cameras Pixel Remapping

I recently noticed that a few pixels on my Olympus E-510 were "stuck" (I'm not sure if these are the "hot" pixels, that I keep hearing about), they were red all the time, showing up most obviously in dark, nighttime photos. I thought "Oh noes, what am I to do" and that I'd have to take it in for repair and all that hassle. Then I discovered a utility on the camera software called Pixel Remapping hidden way down in the depths of the menu. I have no idea how it works, but after running the remapping option all the stuck red pixels are gone, photos are as they should be. I am relieved. Huzzah, Huzzah.

That's all.
