I just bought a Zalman 9700 and I need to remove my existing Intel QX6700 hsf but I don't know how to do it. Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks
 
It's in your Intel processor manual. What you basically have to do is rotate all of the four black pins a quarter circle, then you can pull the pins up and take the heatsink out of the board.
 
Ok I figured that out but now there is some leftover thermal solution on my cpu. What can I use to clean it off?
