While trying out a "new" old lens, a Tamron 3.5/200 mm this afternoon, I 
discovered some spots on the sensor.

Here are a trio of before and after shots:

some smearing

spot close to the tower

http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DMS/second_wipe.jpg.html  Cleaned after 
second wipe

Visible Dust Orange swabs (for 1.6 sensors) wetted with VDust Plus 
sensor cleaning fluid

Camera: Canon 20D

Cheers
