yes ... it is meant for earthing ... dont use anti-glare screen without earthng ... it wont do any good ... it must be a U shaped thing right? just screw it with any of your monitor/cpu screws ... it will serve the earthing purpose ...

I havent ever used an anti-glare screen.

This might sound silly, but i have a query. I have seen in certain banks that a darkened panel is fixed in front of the monitor. Is that an anti-glare screen? That does not have any metal wires attached to it..

Yes,people in banks and all have anti glare screen attached to their systems.I reckon it does help to some extent.

But the anti-glare screens which i mentioned are just translucent plastic pieces. No wires are attached to them. They are supported with the help of two strings with hooks and the hooks are placed in the monitor vents..
