    I have never had that situation although I know you are not supposed to pull the stick while still in use.
    Have you tried saving the images to a different drive? Don't know if that will work but it's worth a try.

    Well I don't really know either. Can you open them in an image viewing/editing program? If you can you would then be able to save them to another location.

    I tried that and tried to print them... I use Adobe and Microsoft 10 to edit my photo's.. is there a way that there may be a history in the software that stores them?

    If you can still display the images on screen, you can at least capture all available pixels that are visible. Alt-PrtSc will capture the current window, then Paste them into a new image.

    You will lose some pixels this way, since most DigiCams capture more than a standard screen can display.

    It is also possible that the images are in a Cache somewhere. Unfortunately, Windows' search function is a bit limited. But you can find all files which have been modified during the last day. Search->Date->Modfied in the last 1 days.

    Unfortunately, the results of that search will be difficult to parse. You would be looking for files in the size range your camera normally produces. But the files will probably *not* have .jpg extensions.

    Like others have suggested, your best bet is to get the memory stick back. Call the store if possible.

    Hope that helps...
