Usually you can ftp to transfer files from one system to another, but ftp uses plain text passwords, therefore you can use scp ( secured copy protocol)
unix/linux its inbuilt : scp
windows : pscp


so from the windows command prompt
pscp @:

This will ask for your password and then download the file to the current directory from where you are running pscp
pscp aixusr1@aixbox:vartmpfile1.log.
