Answers:
Try a mild bleach solution.

clean it with either 409 or a glass and surface cleaner

well - there are those cleaning bags, you put in the microwave and start it and then wipe it clean, I used one once and it worked, but I didn't have the smell you do, but it might work

brew coffee

It's just gonna take some time for the smell to go away! I've done it to the point that black smoke was pouring out of the microwave! Yuck, the whole house stunk for 2 days at least!

Clean it with vinegar.

just try cooking somthing else in the microwav after the burnt smell

Place a lemon cut in half in some water in a pyrex type measuring cup or something and let it go about 5 mins....wipe it out.......if still there repeat with same water and lemon...........
