Question: I was going to attempt Samba over SSH, any better ideas?

Edit:
My mom has been bugging me to do some offsite backing up of her files. She currently uses [Norton Ghost](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_%28software%29). I have a VPS that I use for some other stuff and I figured that I could just setup a FTP server and let Norton connect to that for some offsite backing up action. But for some unknown reason, Norton doesn't handle SFTP or FTPS, so I have to figure out how to automatically mount a Linux drive on Windows or get Norton working with SFTP.

Edit:
Thanks for all your help guys (girls?)!

Answer: 
It looks like there is a package that supports sshfs on Windows, it's called Dokan:

EDIT: in light of your recent edit you may find PSCP sufficient. PSCP is a command-line scp program from PuTTY: <http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html>

You could dump all files to be backed up to a certain directory on your Windows machine, then have a script scp those files to your VPS.
Use [rsync for Windows](http://www.brentnorris.net/rsyncntdoc.html) to backup data on your Windows machine
