Clean the rubbers with silicone spray.
Make sure that the windows are adjusted properly. Sometimes they actually go too high and this can cause leaks.

Picture the window rubber along the side edge of the roof as an upside down "L". The inside of the window should be snug along side the upright of the "L" and the top of the window should just touch the foot of the "L".
Hope that makes sense.
