You could just tar them up and use netcat for transferring the
resulting tarball to Windows (netcat is included in BL3's busybox). A
quite detailed description of using netcat for file transfers is at
http://hacks.oreilly.com/pub/h/1058 . Netcat for Windows NT can be
downloaded from http://www.vulnwatch.org/netcat/

I think that's the easiest solution for transferring individual files
from BL3 to WinXP once you have them networked. Another way would be to
execute httpd at / directory in BL3.
