My guess is that the OP has a transparent layer which is active while the
noise exists in a different layer. Open the layers menu and try selecting
the layer which contains the unwanted pixels. If transparency is
unimportant, you may wish to just merge all the layers (flatten image),
which simplifies matters at the expense of some information loss (elemental
separation).

Hope it helps,

Roy
