If the monitor was on a fixed image for a little while, it could just be image retention. Most monitors don't seem to suffer from it, from what I hear, but my old lcd does, it'll go away after just a couple hours.
But the picture is no help, and I don't quite understand the problem. It could be a couple stuck pixels, try rubbing them..

Yeah, You can see it in the SS, ruling out the monitor as the problem. As Dragon asked, how is the video card? When a card is dying, or malfunctioning it will create screen interference, similar to the spots in question.
You can attempt to reseat the card, making sure it isn't overheating, and cleaning out any dust in the heatsink and fan.. You should do this to the case fans and CPU HS/f as well.
