You should install a SFTP client on your windows server.

If this is a continuous thing you may want to setup a network share. The UNIX cron jobs can move the files there. The task manager in Windows can then take those files and put them where you want them. I do this for logs at work, but in the other direction. The Windows servers put there logs on my UNIX server and my UNIX server sends them to a log server appliance.

I hope this helps
