Can't be done via putty, but go to putty's download page and get pscp. You will then need to place this within your path (The system directory on windows I think).

 

Then, you simply need open a cmd terminal, and excute something like....

 

pscp.exe name-of-file.foo username@hostname:name-of-file.foo

 

This would copy the file to your username home directory. To put the file into say /home/username/foo you would use...

 

pscp.exe name-of-file.foo username@hostname:foo/name-of-file.foo

If you are using windows, i would suggest you look at winscp, it's free, and uses scp as a transfer protocol, with ftp as fallback if needed.

 

If you are uploading a lot of files, try putting then in one archive and unzip them on the server directly, this will save you alot of time as well.
