If you going to have to pay for a new USB cable, consider buying a card reader instead. This will work with any camera you buy in the future, as well. I just bought a multi-slot Sandisk card reader at WalMart, but they had a few cheaper versions that cost less than $10 - about the same as a USB cable would cost.
If you get a card reader, no additional software is necessary. This is not only faster, but it saves your camera batteries. Your computer or printer may even have a card reader built into it. I have enough USB ports that I just leave it plugged in all the time.
First of all, be sure there are some pictures on the card. Plug the card reader into an open USB port. Plug the card into the appropriate slot on your card reader. I use Photoshop Elements and as soon as I plug my card into the reader, it starts its own card reader and displays a thumbnail of every picture on the card.
If this does not happen automatically, open your photo editing software. Do whatever you usually do to open a file, but click on the selector where you can change drives. Your card reader will be assigned a new drive name that will be one letter higher than you ever saw before, such as "Drive G:" or such. Then, just double click on the name of the file you want to open and it will appear in your photo editor.

I had a digital camera I lost the lead to, I ended up taking the memory card out and my computer actually had a little slot where you can put the memory card into. Then I just clicked on my computer to get the pictures. I'm not sure if every computer has this slot but if not you can always buy a USB stick which has a memory card slot so you can get to your photos that way. I've just put in a link so you can see what I mean here. Hope this helps :)

Get it from the website of the manufacturer of the camera.
