In short, I'd recommend spraying a little 'Kaboom' on a shop rag while standing away from your vehicle and using it to wipe down the glass...
Again, this is a USE AT YOUR OWN RISK scenario...

Does the glass feel etched?

again.. be very careful, this is not without risk, but it might work for you

you can always gently wet sand with a very fine grit paper...
Also heard of ppl claying too.
I usually just scrub the windows down real good with my usual car sponge, but im 6'6" with a lowered truck so i can easily scrub the entire window without climbing a step stool, or getting all soaked from leaning against the truck.

one of my Georgia friends used this kit on his car, and said it worked wonders .. I have never tried it, but his judgement is usually pretty good ..

Gonna sound funny, but you can also use newspaper right after a good glass cleaner... The newspaper is just barely abrasive enough that it pulls a filmand most water spots off, and really polishes up the glass. One of my buddies also used a coregated cardboard thing on glass and says that works really well for removing some bug guts etc... Personally i have never tried it..
