Windows XP, of course.

I have a Memorex 512 mb memory thing that plugs into a USB port. It has served me well for some time. Tonight, all of a sudden, I cannot access
it. Windows' filing system shows it as a drive, but I cannot access
anything on it. I tried to format it, but that didn't work either.
Windows just won't access it.

XP is sometimes not very clever at (re)naming the drive letters of removable drives. Could your memory thing be conflicting with another drive letter? If it is, you have to go into the Computer Management applet and change the drive
letters manually.

They don't need to.
