bit of cooking oil on a cloth and rub hard.

I know that lifts sticky stuff......altho not sure about the brown marks.

nail polish remover - but take care if it's painted, try a teeny patch first

Nail varnish remover, if the window frame is plastic (or a painted wooden surface you could live with damaging/touching up afterwards)

Eucalyptus oil lifts sticky stuff.
