A few days ago there was a question posted here from a TV owner who tried cleaning her LCD display with a commercial screen-cleaning chemical, like the Monster product suggested in another answer. The chemical in the can was defective and her screen was ruined.
There is a safe and effective way to clean a flatscreen display, and you can rely on it. See the answer in the Yahoo Question below.

There is a whole show on HD Nation about screen cleaning and making your own cleaner.
For you - go to the store and get one of those Monster screen cleaning kits for about $10. It has a small spritz bottle of alcohol/water that you spray on the cool screen. After a minute GENTLY wipe the screen with the enclosed micro-fiber cloth in a single direction. Let it dry and repeat if needed.
DO NOT POLISH like the previous poster said. You can rub off anti-glare coating doing this.
DO NOT USE WINDEX - the ammonia can haze the plastic screen and remove anti-glare coating.

1.Turn off the monitor. If the screen is dark, it will be easier to see the areas that are dirty or oily.
2.Use a dry, soft cloth and very gently wipe the screen. A great choice would be the microfiber type of cloth used to clean eyeglasses. See Tip #1 below for kinds of cloths to avoid.
3.If the dry cloth did not completely remove the dirt or oil, do not press harder in an attempt to scrub it off. Pushing directly on the LCD screen can often cause pixels to burn out.
4.If necessary, dampen the cloth with distilled water or with an equal ratio of distilled water to white vinegar. See Tip #2 below for products to avoid.
5.Many companies also sell small spray bottles of special cleaner for flat screen monitors but the vinegar mixture is usually just as effective.
6.The plastic edge that surrounds the screen can be cleaned with any multipurpose cleaner but take care to avoid contact with the screen itself.
Tips:
1.Avoid using paper towels, toilet paper, tissue paper, or something like your shirt to wipe the LCD screen. These non-ultrasoft materials can easily scratch the screen.
2.Avoid cleaning products that contain ammonia, ethyl alcohol, acetone, toluene, ethyl acid, or methyl chloride. These chemicals can react with the materials that the LCD screen is made of which could yellow the screen or cause other kinds of damage.
3.Never spray liquid directly on the LCD screen or it could run inside the monitor and cause damage.

Try very soft and very damp cloth. Start polishing, reverse the cloth and polish again; and keep at it until it is gone. Do not press hard on the screen.

* How do you know if the rag is soft enough? Well one way is to grasp it firmly in the middle with one hand and pull it out with the other. If it burns it is not soft enough.
