Try the magic eraser.
Or a little Oxy clean spray.

Just be careful if you have flat paint. I used the Magic Eraser on paint that was flat finish (as opposed to eggshell etc) and it took the paint right off the wall along with the dirt! 
A lot of flat paints are now scrubable so it might not even be an issue but you do have to watch

i also vouch for the magic eraser! we are getting ready to sell our house, and i just did this to the white walls to just get finger prints and schmutz off of them... it worked GREAT! it looks like a new coat of paint  just be careful on colored paints though... i hear it can take the paint off...

I use either the magic eraser or Ajax on a sponge (doesn't leave a film or scratch the paint)
