Get some Wax & Grease Remover.....or use some mineral Turps, or Prepsol.
And a paint scraper...

if it's a brand new scraper, you wont scratch the window.....I used one to remove all the leftover gunk on the rear windscreen after removing the factory phone kit.....came up beautifully, not a mark left!!
The trick is to go SLOWLY.......don't force / push too hard!!!

probably....ask them!!!
But not that hard to DIY. If window cleaner worked for you, then something like turps or even Methylated Spirits would definately work. Wax & Grease remover FTW though.

i am not sure what type of glue it is, but have you tried a hair dryer to heat it slightly and soften it
