That's exactly the setting you should use to get rid of it. I'll come back to that one later tonight from the comfort of the sofa (and undoubtedly get some strange looks from the other half when I realise I've been writing for a couple of hours)! As a quick tip, go into the white balance menu, put it in the light bulb setting, go to the window and shoot a couple of test frames.
