As you can probably see from the picture above and to the right, I've started promoting SftpDrive. A very useful (and small) piece of software - it allows you to access a *nix server (any SSH account in fact) from a Windows mapped drive. I believe there's also a version for Macs, called ExpanDrive.
A very useful piece of software IMO as it eliminates the need for Samba (for example) when you want to access a remote server for web development or administration, or, as a secure file server. Very useful when you're developing on Windows but have a *nix server (a common practice).
