urgent! Cant remove the HS from my CPU

Hi!
I am trying to remove the HS and have been moving it (rotating back and forth) and nothing. Can I use a blower to heat it up a little bit?

UPDATE! The hair dryer worked! Thread can be closed now.

use a hairdryer, just keep it about 6 inches away, and constantly wiggle the hs so that when it gets warm it will pull free.
I have had this happen before also.

Just read your reply. Yes it did work. I was getting desperate!
