[ale] scp file from Windows to Linux

I have a file on an old windows box that I'd like to transfer to a
linux box via scp.  The file resides on a user's Desktop on the WinXP
machine and I'd be initiating the file transfer from the linux box.  

I'm comfortable transferring files this way from linux to linux, but
just confused what the path would look like for the file on the Window
user's Desktop (only one drive designated C:)

I'd rather not install PuTTy or the like on the windows box and just do
the transfer with installed software.

Thanks for any tips.
