Rendered image produces pixelated shadows

[stusic]

I am rendering this image and it produces very pixelated shadows. It doesn't seem to be affecting the rest of the objects, so I would think it has something to do with my raytraced shadows... Any ideas? I attached a chunk of the image that shows the pixelation - it has not been enlarged. 1:1

Thanks!

Nevermind, I see I had anti-aliasing turned off.

Thanks!
