Thanks a lot to all who replied. I wasn't brave enough to carry out the
cleaning myself after all so I left it to the local shop and it seems that they
have done a good job. The guy there said it's not that easy to clean the
keyboard on a laptop if you don't know what you're doing; one can seriously
damage the laptop's components. Oh well, it's sorted now but thanks for the
help anyway.
Cheers,
Amro

Amro,
I had to clean a keyboard for a friend once, if cleaning through the other
mentioned options, the next step, if feeling confident enough, is to lift off
each key individually. they usually pop off if you lift the bottom edge. They
hinge up in some cases and a cotton bud can be used to clean underneath. In
some case there is a rubber cup, this too can be lifted off and cleaned with
some warm water and dried totally before replacing. Again the area where it
sits can be cleaned with a cotton bud to remove any sticky residue. The key
then can be placed into position and pressed firmly down replacing it into its
place.
Hope this is of help.
Mike
