For those first-year students still on Windows, I'll post two articles.
The first one is on how to get the SSH-functionality while you're still running Windows, the second one will be (I hope within a week) to post another article - about migrating to Linux.
When you want to access your UvA-home folder and you have only a Windows environment, here's the solution: PuTTY. PuTTY is a program that has the SSH-functionality, and you can simply run it from the Windows-shell (cmd.exe).
I won't give too many details over here - just try to download it, you won't have to do any installation (many people carry PuTTY with them on a USB-stick because of that). The PuTTY SCP program is called pscp.
Download PuTTY here:

(I hope you know how to use a Windows commandline..)
