LCD's don't have image burn in like a Plasma, but any monitor/TV left on the same image for extended periods of time can retain the image a bit, even CRTs. I would suggest settings Windows to shut the video signal down after about 30 minutes or an hour. That'll simply save power and is better on the monitor in general. Getting the image back simply means moving your mouse slightly, it'll come right back up.
