Hm, depends what you want to happen: if it is okay to remove those
pixels, then you could use the magic wand tool to select the background
(if that has a single color). Then invert the selection and shrink it by
1 pixel.
Now you can copy your object and paste it somewhere without the annyoing
border.
Hope that helps.
