Bob:

I'm a Linux newbi myself, but maybe an application like 
PuTTY would help.  You can run PuTTY from you Windows 
system and SSH into the Linux box.  I've never tried this, 
but you may be able to just snag a copy of the file and 
transfer it over to the Windows box.  You could also safe 
the file via FTP to a server as a text file (I assume logs 
are text files) and then snag it with the Windows box.

I'm sure some of the Linux and UNIX guru's will blow my 
suggestions apart, which is a good thing, because then I 
can learn from their remarks :)
