You need to use some kind of file-transfer protocol (ftp, scp, etc), putty can't send remote files back to your computer. I use Win-SCP, which has a straightforward gui. Select SCP and you should be able to log in with the same ssh credentials and on the same port (probably 22) that you use with putty.
