tablespoons of lemon juice. Lemons cut right through any
grime that might be stuck to those panes. (A mixture of
vinegar and water will also work well.) 
Use newspapers to clean the windows, it's a lot cheaper
than paper towels and the ink is a polishing agent so they
won't streak! (Just make sure that you wear gloves so the
ink doesn't end up on your hands). 
If you have a smudge problem and you can't figure out
which side of the glass it's on, wipe the inside pane
horizontally.. and the outside vertically. This way it
will be easy to tell what side the smudge is on. 
For stubborn spots on your windows, try a little oven
cleaner. Spray it on, let it sit a few minutes and wipe
away the grime.
