Irrelevant question based on the problem stated in his post!
I disagree. John_F's question was based upon information included in the OP's post. I was also curious as to why the lens surface would get dusty when covered by the filter which is now stuck. Possibly, the OP changed filters under dusty conditions. It's a fair question, and the OP received plenty of responses dealing with the stuck filter.
Respectfully,

If you have a mouse pad, turn it upside down, place the lens flush on the bottom of the mouse pad, and turn it clockwise. Works for me every time. I carry one in my camera bag for that very purpose.
I may be wrong here but if you twist the clockwise wouldn't that tighten the filter? I use this method and I always twist the lens counter-clockwise.

I have a Nikkor 70-200 2.8 lens that I had attached a Hoya UV filter. After shooting in a dusty situation the other day, I attempted to remove the filter to clean the lens surface which had quite a bit of dust on it. The filter is stuck on the lens and I can't unscrew it to remove it. Yikes! Any recommendations. I don't want to damage trying to remove the filter.
Filter wrench! bwa
