Strange Clutch Problem

I'm having some clutch problems, and I'd like some input. I backed out of my driveway yesterday, and when I released the clutch pedal after engaging first gear, it didn't completely disengage. I've never experienced this in my G or any other car, but the pedal actually stayed partially depressed for a second or two. By the time I figured out what was going on, I could already smell it burning. It doesn't seem to be slipping too bad, but I could smell it every time I started from a dead stop. I'm concern it may have caused some permanent damage.

The car is two years old, but it has less than 5,000 miles on it. I drive aggressively at times, but I do not abuse my clutch at all. Has anybody else had this problem? It sounds like it should be a warranty issue, but how would I prove it wasn't caused by riding the clutch?

Ive seen some threads around the forums about the clutch actually locking up like that on people, but im not sure what one could possibly search under to see those threads...look around in the drivetrain forum and see if u can find anything dealing with those issues...

I found what I was looking for. At least I know it isn't just me. Now what to do about it?
