Mine all have the smell to one degree or another, it smells like barf! But fortunately not the haze or mold. I've heard that this is due to an irreversable decomposition of the plastic material. There have been various suggestions over the years as to how to clean the screen with plastic polish, bleach or various cleaners, or encapsulate the smell in polish or Armor-all, but as far as I know there is no consensus on this. I've learned to live with it, if not love it!
