Camera cleaning?

I think my camera might be in need of a little love. My pictures tend to come out fuzzy or streaked. I took of the battery door and looked at the lens, and I can see a little dust on it, and it might be a little dirty. I don't want to touch it.. so I guess some canned air would be good.. but I want to be sure. I'd also like to clean it with something (lens cleaner?) if possible.

Back in the day, my pictures would all come out with a red tint, so I wiped off the lens very gently with a dry q-tip which did work.

Also, sometimes if I touch the button to focus, when I let go, I can hear an audible 'click' when it jumps back out of focus. Is this normal?

I think that focus thing is just for show. The sound is for sure.

sorry about the slow time to get back to this...

I can physically hear something clicking in there, even when the phone's shutter sounds are on silent. Like something moved and then clicked.. like what people described with some of the bad droid units.
