Form a loop of bare copper wire.... run that right around the edge of your screen. In contact with the screen surface. Tape it on there if you have to. Connect that loop to the earth tag... This might help to prevent the excessive static build up your are suffering from as it will help to drain the static away from the screen.
I was actually thinking of something similar to this as I was reading through the thread, but Fozzy already has the idea going.
Think of it as a sort of
miniature lightning rod found on roof tops. (sorta)
The loop will pick up the static electricity
as it developes and carry it away to the earth ground. And really I wouldn't think it would need to be a complete loop, just enough wire to poke up and be really close or touching the picture tube.
Also one more thing what if I got a two to three pronged adapter to plug on to the two pronged TV plug.
Those are
usually found the other way around by the way.
They are designed to eliminate the ground
prong.

Not what you need.
Earth Ground and Neutral are actually shared if you go all the way back to your breaker panel and trace them out.
The neutral is designed to run though whatever the appliance needs to make it function.
But the neutral side in your appliance is NOT a direct ground.
The earth ground is there for a direct route back to the breaker/fuse panel in case of a possible short circuit from the hot side.

Some is normal, but there should be some built in cicuit to remove most of that static buildup. Even a two pronged tv should have all this built into it's cicuitry.
Have you moved your cabinet recently? Bumped it around a bit?
Maybe the dag springs or braids have come loose inside from around the picture tube?
Something along those lines.
Anyone else have a thought on this idea?
