You have a broken window regulator.
How mechanical are you?
Here is a site to buy good guaranteed used ones from, http://www.roverlandparts.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=411

or you can take it to a weld shop and have them reweld it for you with a much stronger weld than those 3 little spot welds. however i would check the rolling plastic wheels to see if they are rolling freely or if they are broken. whatever you do just remember to clean your window when your done before you roll it down again. the grease or dirt whatever on the window will make it get stuck on the rubber trim and then that will damage your regulator. get some powder like chalk or something and sprinkle some on the inside of that rubber trim to give your window a nice slippery dry surface to roll down on.
