    Lint free cloth and warm water.

    Use very little, only just damp n clean dust/greasy off. Then dry.

    Okay, there's a cleaning cloth you can get from Tesco or Sainsburys. It's called a Spontex Window Wonder Cloth. It costs around £2 and all you do is dampen it a little and it will clean any glass surface (windows or mirrors) or TFT screen surface. It's washable and has a velvety surface and unbelievable value for money. No chemicals are used and it is truly amazing. It's also reasonably lint free.

    If it's just dust, I got one of these. They're brilliant...



    They are so gentle you dont risk scratching your screen. (They are the one's that pick up dust 'electrostaticly', so I dont use inside PC )

    Can usually find them in Wilko's or Woolies for a couple of quid.


    *edit* Found them HERE, but it's a bit of a dodgy looking site
