Removing Rust stains from Bricks?

We had an especially warm summer in the South this year, so much so that we went and bought a $100 window unit to help keep the house cooler upstairs. I placed it in the window with zero problems. Problem is now I can see that where the water condensation ran off the window unit and onto the brick exterior its left a rust stain in the brick/morter that looks pretty bad. Any idea's as how to remove the rust stain from the brick and morter?

Thanks

the rust or iron oxide can be removed with tsp and water and a scrub brush. after that a pressure water cleaner is the next choice.
