It sounds like something has gotten into the "gears" of the lens. It can be something very small like a grain of sand. or something could have jarred the camera and caused the lens to come off of the track and now the lens wont retract. It can be pricey to fix and usually not worth it.

Try these procedures.

Try NOT connecting your camera to your computer.The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program such as Picasa.
