Kingston 1 gb pen drive asking to format

I was using the pen drive to transfer files from my PC to laptop. Suddenly when I inserted it in the PC it did not open the drive. When I tried exploring it from My Computer it gave the message in a popup window: "Disk is not formatted. The disk in drive H is not formatted. Do you want to format it now?"

How do I recover the data on the pen drive?
