It worked using PSCP. Instructions:

1. Download PSCP.EXE from Putty download page
2. Open command prompt and type set PATH=<path to the pscp.exe file>
3. In command prompt point to the location of the pscp.exe using cd command
4. Type pscp

5. use the following command to copy file form remote server to the local system

   pscp [options] [user@]host:source target
   

So to copy the file /etc/hosts from the server example.com as user fred to the file c:\temp\example-hosts.txt, you would type:

pscp fred@example.com:/etc/hosts c:\temp\example-hosts.txt

One of the putty tools is pscp.exe; it will allow you to copy files from your remote host.
