Take it to your LBS. Had the same problem last week. Cost me $8 to fix. Or if you really want to do it yourself, search youtube. Just type in front derailer adjustment.

Seriously? WTF is wrong with you, he posted in "Bicycle Mechanics". Don't tell him to take it to a shop for something simple like this.

Between the Park Tool repair site and this - you should be fixed-up quickly:
