Try using an soft clesn dry towel.  But before you use it be sure to shake it off.  (the little pieces of fuzz might stick, if that doesn't work try dampening the towel just a little bit NOT TOO MUCH).\n                             if you need more help just ask another question and I'll try to answer it!   Thanks,\n                                          See Ya later!

It's your monitor. The screen is electrostatic and draws dust. Best cure is use an anti-allergy nasal spray. If you use it regularly for two weeks, no more problems.

If you're looking to open that monitor case and clean inside, I'd first suggest NOT doing it... The capacitors in a monitor hold enough charge to kill you.\n\nSecondly, if you do decide to do so... download the electrical specs from the monitor manufacturer and plan your work after you're very familiar with the internal components.\n\nI would hate for someone who answers your question to be a party to you shocking the life out of yourself.  I'd really suggest cleaning the outside and leaving it at that.  CRT's are very inexpensive compared to a few years ago...\n\nGood luck!

Yup, I also think it's screensaver.  That's a good one!

first of all do not use alcohol or spray cleaners,,, use a moist cloth dipped in water that has a drop of liquid detergent in it.start at the center of the Glass and gently do in circles, not you lol. then use a clean dry lint free cloth a soft and do the same as before.\n\ni hope i have mad my self clear to you.\n\nps. the reason you don't use any of the other products is that some scanner screens are made of a compound plastic that looks like glass and any product made of that compound dose not react well to  alcohol or spray cleaners

Do the following step by step :\n\n1.  Dilute isopropyl alcohol into a mix with no more than 50% alcohol and the rest distilled water.\n\n2. Apply the mix to a cotton cloth, like an old T-shirt, lint-free microfiber cloth, or other very soft cloth. A large cloth is best, since it will help reduce the risk that finger pressure leaves streaks in the screen.\n\n3. Wipe the cloth against the screen, in a counter-clockwise or other consistent motion. Take care not to press your fingers into the cloth (and screen) but apply an even pressure to the cloth. \n\nAlternatively, you can get Alcoholic Wipes from a local store.

I know that if you go to any place like Staples, Office Max, Best Buy, etc. they have LCD cleaners that come with pre-moistened wipes and lint free cloths which I use and they work very well. And they work on screens or the exterior of products such as cell phones, laptops, iPods, etc.

Buy a microfiber cloth, This is what I use on my laptop, I used wet/dry towelets for laptops which suck. If its a CRT you don't have to use a fancy microfiber cloth.\n\nGood Luck,

Ok, this is going to sound weird, but get a powerdrill and tape 2 magnents to the drill bit.  Rev it up all the way and then move it coloser to the computer.  It will "degause" the monitor.  This is handy if your monitor doesent have a built in degauser

1.) Hit the DeGauss button or menu item on the monitor.\n\n2.) Move any other monitors or electical devices away from the monitor.\n\n3.) Get a new monitor.

I have a Dell and the owner's manual says NOT to use alcohol.  So I never have.  But I did get a box of specially prepared cleaning cloths for computer screens (100 to a box) for about $3.50 in WalMart.  And they've worked well.  If you use one a week, it'll last almost 2 years.  Not a bad investment.  :-)

You can use rubbing alcohol and a soft cloth (the kind you use to clean eyeglasses) on an LCD screen - just be gentle and don't press too hard into the screen.  The alcohol should dissolve the pen ink.\n\nHopefully the pen didn't scratch your screen too much.

I use an eyeglass cloth (the kind you get from your optometrist) to clean of finger smudges.  If there's gunk on it, I use a little bit of Windex on a tissue then lightly wipe it off.

if they are very small scratches i would just use a commercial grade lcd screen cleaner. i got mine at office max. be very careful because most laptop screens are different than a home lcd. laptops have a protective coating on it which u can damage even more.

Do you miss that shiny new laptop look? Here's how to brew your own laptop screen cleaning kit with household ingredients.\nSteps\n\n   1. Dilute isopropyl alcohol into a mix with no more than 50% alcohol and the rest distilled water.\n   2. Apply the mix to a cotton cloth, like an old T-shirt, lint-free microfiber cloth, or other very soft cloth. A large cloth is best, since it will help reduce the risk that finger pressure leaves streaks in the screen.\n   3. Wipe the cloth against the screen, in a counter-clockwise or other consistent motion. Take care not to press your fingers into the cloth (and screen) but apply an even pressure to the cloth. \n\n\nTips\n\n    * Expensive store-bought products such as Kensington Screen Guardian contain the same mixture of alcohol and water. 3M's Antistatic Cleaning Solution contains this same mix plus Ethylene Glycol.\n    * If you apply too much (drippy/overly damp), wipe it off with a soft cloth and apply less.\n    * Tissues will likely leave flakes of paper on your monitor. It's better to not even try it.\n    * You don't want mineral spots on your screen, so don't use tap water.\n    * Using a 100% cotton cloth or shirt alone, without the alcohol mix, can sometimes produce the same smudge-free results without going to the trouble of mixing your own solution.\n    * If you're a photographer, you can use your lint-free lens wipes instead of a soft cotton cloth.\n    * Put the solution in a small spritzer bottle, the type that you push from the top to get a fine mist, it works really well at getting just the right amount on your screen with a spray on each quadrant.\n    * If you are looking for a cheap way to get your hands on ready made cleaning solution, try CD/DVD cleaner which is often 55% Isopropyl alcohol and is not harmful to most plastic surfaces. \n\n\nWarnings\n\n    * Do not drink Isopropyl Alcohol. It is NOT grain alcohol. It is toxic.\n    * Do not use cheap paper towels. You will scratch the LCD screen.\n    * Avoid using products like Windex which contain ammonia that can degrade the LCD panel.\n    * Shut down your laptop, unplug it from the power adapter, and remove the battery before cleaning it. \n\n\nThings You'll Need\n\n    * Isopropyl Alcohol\n    * Distilled water\n    * A soft cotton cloth
