    I'm surprised no one here has mentioned De-Solv-It for removing sticky
label residue. It's made from orange peels and is totally safe, yet works
very well to remove a variety of sticky remnants. It was used extensively
during the Alaskan oil spill to remove oil from wildlife. The company
president drank some of his product at a demonstration to prove its safety,
although they don't recommend this.

    The history and uses of the product are interesting: see their web site

    It's available at Home Depot and Walmart or from the web site.

    I use it all the time to remove labels and their residue from old
computers and CD jewell cases. It can even be used on paperback books and
sofware boxes, as long as they have a slick, shiny finish.
