Alcohol and Ammonia based products make the plastic of a LCD display's screen yellow and crack over time. Ammonia like in Windex strips the anti-glare coating if any of the screen and can destroy a shiny gloss coating on newer screens.
I (and Apple the manufacturer's of some of the most expensive smaller LCD screens) reccomend iKlear by Klear Screen http://www.klearscreen.com/ with their micro chamois cloth, it's a very nice product and is well thought out and a bottle lasts a long time. you can also use it on eye glasses that have anti-glare coating.
Never use Windex or other glass cleaners
Never use paper towel
Clean CRT monitors the same as LCDs and if they have a fabric coating or non-glare or shiny coat you won't do any harm.
Simple huh?

50% Isopropyl Alcohol
50% Water
This is the Manufacturers recommended way of cleaning a Laptop or LCD screen.
Use a very Soft cloth. Lightly dampen with the 50/50 mixture. Lightly wipe the screen. The solution will almost instantly dry as your are wiping. If it does not completly dry, use DRY very soft cloth and lightly wipe excess off.
Any other methods will scratch and or harm your screen GUARANTEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The LCD Cleaning Solution you can buy in stores is made up of exactly the same formula above.

I just read a neato thing on that at langa.com...cpy/pst of one :
Fred: My long-serving CRT monitor recently got tired, so I got a nice big LCD monitor on sale at Staples. It's great. But reading its literature, I got nervous about all the warnings about the fragility of the LCD display and that impact damage is not covered by its warranty. That made me search catalogs and on-line for protective screens--- and I was shocked at their cost, over $100, more than half of the cost of the monitor itself ! But I found a great and reasonably-priced alternative: 1/8" thick clear Lucite Acrylic Plastic. A local plastics store's scrap bin contained several pieces that were just a little bigger than what I needed (16 3/4" x 13 1/4"). Including cutting it to size, it set me back just $3.00 It was easy to attach to the monitor with a few little pieces of Duct Tape, and it provides complete protection for the screen. If there's no Plastics Store locally (check the Yellow Pages), try your local hardware store. Many sell the same thing, cut to size, for storm doors etc.
That guy is foward thinking

Use a special product made specifically for computer screens that you can buy at any office supply store. Things like Windex will ruin the anti-glare coating.
