Got any ideas on how to free a stuck crankarm?

Guys,
I took my crankarm off my powertorque chainset a few weeks back, gave it a re-grease, and replaced it.
Just tried to take it off again today and it is stuck solid..no budging it with the crank puller.
Can anybody think of any ways to get the thing off?
I tried riding it for a while at lunchtime without the nut on, but even after 12 miles it is still stuck fast.
Would heating the crankarm directly give it a chance?
I'm starting to think I should switch to SRAM of Shimano!!
Cheers,
FJ
