I don't think the audio cleaner is rubbing alcohol, but no harm to try. After cleaning, you can also use a product called "DeoxIT" to coat all metallic (won't work on carbon) contacts (inside the camera) to avoid further problem. The fluid is in red colour. regards, Alan Chan _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com/intl.asp
