Code:
pscp -agent \path\to\source\file user@remotehost:/path/to/target

Then you use Plink to make it executable and run the script:

Code:
plink -agent user@remotehost "chmod +x /path/to/script; sh /path/to/script"

You could probably wrap this in a Windows batch script, but I'm not sure how to make that completely robust.

You command:

Code:
 
C:\Program Files\PuTTY>plink -agent user1@remorthost "chmod +x /export/home/test.sh; sh /export/home/test.sh" -v

yields the below output:

Code:
Using keyboard-interactive authentication.
Password:
chmod: cannot access `/export/home/test.sh': No such file or directory
sh: /export/home/ms104u/test.sh: No such file or directory

But the file exists:

Code:
ls -ltr /export/home/test.sh
-rwxr-xr-x   1 user1   vts           22 Jul  4 09:50 /export/home/test.sh
