You can resort to a slightly damp cloth with just a dab of washing up liquid, then wiped over with a dry cloth.

Didn't realise you were talking about a touch-screen, emmie. Soz.
A piece of very soft, lint free, cloth to which has been applied a small amount of mixture 50% Boiled water (cooled) & 50% White Vinegar.
Wipe over screen and allow to dry before polishing with a soft lint free cloth.

Having said that, I use a wrung-out dishcloth and it works a treat on my Desktop Monitor, Laptop and TV screens.

I just use Windowlene - does the job lovely
Windowlene is what I use to clean my big TV and it comes up like a diamond. Also the black stand as well.
I use isopropyl alcohol on my ipad - its the stuff that is sold as CD cleaner
items that should be avoided for cleaning LCD Screens.

Avoid these substances at all cost:

Acetone
Ammonia
Ethyl acid
Ethyl alcohol
Methyl alcohol
Methyl chloride
Surface cleaners
Toluene
Window cleaners
Any other corrosive or abrasive substances.

Just to expand on Han's post. meths is a mixture of ethyl alcohol and methy alcohol, so should be avoided.
