Generally you should create another account to use to transfer the file rather than using the root account (which by default is denied SSH access). When you create the account, make sure to enable the grant shell access option.

Then download FastSCP from http://www.veeam.com/veeam_fast_scp.asp - it's free, install it on the Windows box. You can then use it to transfer the file.
