monstercable.com sells LCD screen cleaner. It comes with a special rag that won't damage the scren & it works fantastic. I use it on my 46in LCD & have had no probs with it. No streaking or scratching of any kind. You can also purchase this at Best Buy, it comes in a blue bottle.

Seriously the BEST way is to go to Walmart, FredMeyer or BestBuy and get a special notebook computer screen (which is LCD) cleaning solution. This will be a non-abrasive solution. Then you can either use an applicatior that comes with the spray (if one does) or get a "micro fibre" cloth. Usually a micro fibre cloth is what comes in a kit anyway. You should be able to find a micro fibre cloth in an automotive section of the store - if there are none in Electronics.

Spray the spray on the cloth - not on the screen directly - and be gentle while cleaning.

Actual LCD screen cleaning sprays work amazingly well and leave no scratching or smearing - as that's what they are designed for.

Hmm.... I'd heard you're not supposed to use manufactured screen cleaners on LCD screens as they can do more harm than good. But I guess maybe not.

Just go to BestBuy & get the Monster Cleaner with the microfiber cloth, It's made specially for LCD's & works great. Costs about $20.
