Scraper. Make sure you wet it with soapy water first

This is the stuff you want jason, I had to do a big clean on a refurbed Pcworld and the sign guys gave me a bottle...spray on, leave for 20 seconds comes off really easy  ;D

Just soapy-wet the window and use a scraper blade.

How difficult is that? 

Don't try using something complicated like a chair; you may hurt your elbow.
