Press 'Prt Scr' (Top right, third in). Open MSPaint, File>New, then paste.

You can also paste screenshots into word documents(handy if you are doing a 'how-to..' guide for someone.

Faststone Screen Capture is a handy little program which gives various options for screen captures, including freehand, as well as the ability to add captions. The latest version is now shareware, but the last free version is available here:

Dont suppose you are using vista?
