Cannot open JPG file

I'm having a similar problem. I took some pictures on vacation and transferred them to our laptop as we went. When I got home I noticed that I couldn't get thumbnails for some images. I couldn't open them in Photoshop either. About 20% of my vacation images have this problem. I've been looking for a solution for a while because I'd like to get my pictures back.

Here are some details:

OS: Windows XP Home (sp1 + critical updates)
Error (from Paint): Access to x was denied.
Error (from Photoshop): Could not open x because the file is locked. Use the Properties command in Windows Explorer to unlock the file.

I can't copy or move the file. I can delete it, but it disappears instead of going to the Recycle Bin. Obviously I don't want to delete my photos.

Any help would be appreciated.
