Need help big time...

[my95z34]

Well, today I went to go into my pictures on my memory card and the entire folder was empty... even when I plugged it into my computer and browsed from there. So I took the card out and put it into the card reader on my laptop and when Vista picked it up it asked to fix it or whatever. So I let it and now my My Pictures folder is a file. It is 13 mb in size so obviously my pictures are still there, but how can I pull them out?

There are a few in there that I took today that were basically once in a lifetime pictures. I would really like to get them back. Everything else was already backed up on my laptop.

Any ideas at all?

Thanks in advance.
