Copy the file to a disc with the cp command, then go to the windows machine and read the file.

If you're going to be doing alot of transfers, you can mount a Windows share like so:
mount -t smbfs -o username=administrator,password=secret //windowsbox/c\$ /windowsbox/c
Also, you can use smbclient from samba, which acts much like an ftp client.

You could also ftp them over if you had a FTP server on the Windows box. but that's so 1995.

The most secure, bestest way would be to download the OpenSSH port for Windows and scp it over:
