Well that was painless.

'Orrible sticky gunk but seemed more intent in sticking to itself
than anything else. Stanley blade to lift the bulk and then pressed
hard against the glass got most of the residue off. Found that
detergent based liquid hand soap would shift what remained on the
blade, my fingers and the glass. B-)

Missed the beginning of the thread so apologies if this has already been
said.
Cellulose thinners remove a lot of adhesives including window stickers
and sticking plaster mess. They also dissolve plastics and are highly
inflammable. Be careful.
Nail varnish remover might also work - also needs careful use to avoid
collateral damage
