WinSCP tends to be my preferred choice - it can be a single binary like PuTTY. Some people seem to like FileZilla too, take a look at that? Apart from the UI, transfer speed can vary wildly between SCP clients. Granted Dropbear isn't the speediest SSH server, but in the past I have seen 10x performance difference between windows SCP clients to the same server. I think it has improved a bit these days, though test it out. Matt
