Get iPhone 3gs out of recovery mode?

I tried to update my iphone because the apps would not open. I accidentally clicked restore and closed out itunes to cancel. Now it is in recovery mode and i have tried 10 websites with 15 different ways to get out but it just goes back to the recovery screen. Mine is different than described by others as there's no cd.

Update to latest itunes, and restore.
