You might consider running fsck.vfat on it. In your other message

mention you can read this in Windows. Backup the contents to that
machine. Then insert the usbstick in linux, umount it, do a fsck.vfat on

I think i can consistently cause the vfat mounting to freakout if i
ever attempt to overfill my usb flash drive while using it under
windows and then trying to mount it under linux. I basically have to
reformat the vfat filesystem on the little bugger to have it behave
correctly again.
