Default Squeaking Windows

For some reason my window is starting to squeak whenever I roll it up or down. It doesn't make the squeaking noise all the time when I roll the window, its just at some points when its either going down or up that it makes the squeaking noise. I haven't done anything to the window and it just started making the noise. I have a 98 Accord Coupe. Could it be that the windows just need to be cleaned??? or could it be something else.

Where could I get some Silicon grease from? So to see the tracks I would have to completely take off the inside door trims right?

you can get it from lowes or whatever, any hardware store. And i'm just talking about the part the window runs against when you roll it up, the edge of the opening. just roll down the window and spray up the side, then roll the window up and down a few times. that should take care of the squeeking, otherwise i dont know what the problem is.

yeah, and make sure it is silicon stuff...dont say... hey, WD-40 will do the same thing, cuz it will dry the tracks out, and they are pretty expensive for a lil bit of rubber.
