Cleaning/disinfecting an HTC desire

How can I disinfect my HTC Desire HD? I have a friend who smeared his nasty stomach virus all over it and now I want it to go away. Is diluted bleach horrible? If not, then how diluted should it be?

Thanks
 
Serious as hell. Alcohols work very poorly on these kinds of viruses. Bleach is where it's at.

EDIT: No good idea? I mean, diluting bleach in water and then damp it on a cloth to clean the screen? I have protection on the rest of the phone so that's pretty simple.
 
use an antibacterial wipe, leave to dry, a virus wont survive when dry, if you are really serious about disinfecting, try wiping the phone with a wipe that has been rubbed on a clean copper pipe for a while, copper has been proven to kill even the MRSA virus, but as for bleach,,,,not good, can react with aluminium and cause oxidization...
 
Wow, I looked up copper and it kills nonenveloped viruses. If i put the screen on a copper plate and leave it for six hours, it would be cleaner than the inside of a bottle of vodka. This is awesome.
