You seem to be looking for WinSCP - http://winscp.sourceforge.net/eng/

WinSCP uses PuTTY - http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/

Your users can generate their own keypair, send you their respective
public key which you administer with the sshd server, running on the
Linux box. Files can be copied, moved using sftp, scp with the ssh1 and
ssh2 protocols. The W32 clients can use either a Norton Commander- or
Explorer-like interface.
