You could try pieces of the clear vinyl carpet protector runners placed with the gripper side facing upward. That's what I've heard suggested by Warren Eckstein who hosts The Pet Show on the radio each week. His web address is www.warreneckstein.com and he answers questions there as well on his weekly show.

I used to just knock the cat off the counter and tell her no in a loud voice. She learned in under a week. Of course I'm not a cat person so I used the same method I've used on my horses and dogs.

I have them on my furniture (unfortunate accident on brand new sofa ) now I just keep them on to be safe.
I use a spray bottle- they know what happens now so I just have to shake it and they stop whatever it is they are doing.
I have heard aluminum foil will work too.
