PC Inspector File recovery is free and it might work if the memory stick can be inserted in a card reader.

My digital still camera was in my apartment during a fire. There are some pix on the memory stick I'd really like to recover. Anyone out there ever seen a burned memory stick, and/or been able to retrieve images from it? Thanks.
