Assuming that most Linux servers have FTP servers installed, or are SSH enabled, you could install an FTP client on your Windows desktop, FTP / SFTP to your Linux server, and transfer anything up / down in that fashion.

Here is a post detailing how - if you wish to play around with using command prompt and psftp.

You have to use pscp, included into the normal PuTTY distribution. If you like better GUI, you can use FileZilla, that supports SFTP.

You can use pscp for that. It's putty's sibling: http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html
