What's the best free scriptable SFTP client for windows?
I've looked at WinSCP and FileZilla. WinSCP seems quite buggy (click here), and FileZilla doesn't seem very scriptable.
Any suggestions?
Basically what I want to do is: from a scheduled task, log onto a remote server, pull any files across, and then delete them from the remote server.

You can use the scp client that comes with putty pscp. You can use pscp on the command line like scp in a linux command line.
JanuszJanuszCygwin. You can combine the power of command line sftp with the power of BASH scripting. All that, in Windows!
Pablo Santa CruzPablo Santa CruzPutty scp has already been mentioned.
I want to mention putty psftp.exe which might be new.
Use the following command line:
psftp.exe -l -pw -b
This will log into the ftp server and run file-with-ftp-cmds against it.

I know this is a very old question, but take a look athttp://redpark.posterous.com/lftp-for-windows
From cygwin I am using only 3 files: bash.exe, ssh.exe and cygssp-0.dll.Put them in the same directory as redpark's Windows port of lftp and go scripting.
Commandline example:
It is no single exe solution, but uploads proved to be twice as fast as uploads by pscp.exe

Not free, but look at edtFTPnet/PRO for a comprehensive script engine that supports SFTP on Windows.
Here's a sample script:
Bruce BlackshawBruce BlackshawNote to others:To create the scheduled task, simply open a text editor and write out the pscp command. Then save the file as a .bat file. Chapter 5 and 6 of the documentation have everything you'd ever want to know about how pscp works.
Note that pscp is quite particular about having a source and a target. If you don't provide those, pscp will simply default back to the usage message.
Here's an example:
In this example pscp.exe is sitting in the root of th c directory. -batch disables interactive prompts so that they won't interrupt the automated task. -sftp forces the sftp protocol, because in the question sftp is specified. The :/* wildcard will bring back everything in the source, and the c:yourlocation specifies where it ends up on your machine.
To schedule this as an automated task, simply bring up Scheduled Tasks. In XP, this is in System Tools. Then point the task to the .bat file you've created, give it a time to run, and you're set.
AndrewAndrewRush FTP; free, comes in portable versions and has a comprehensive scripting API (compatible with LUA language).
If you work with powershell you can use something like netcmdlets (www.netcmdlets.com). It is not a client per-se, but a set of libraries (cmdlets) for internet communications. There is a free personal edition as well. It's easy to configure schedules tasks to call powershell script and you have the benefit of being completely flexible/extensible through code.

I want an App for Mac OS X 10.5 to connect to my site using ssh. The app must be free and have some sort of instructions to get me started.
EDIT:
I just needed to take care of something on my website via SSH. CyberDuck worked.

Try using Cyberduck, a free, open-source app. Here are the supported protocols:
FTP (File Transfer Protocol), FTP/TLS (FTP secured over SSL/TLS), SFTP (SSH Secure File Transfer), WebDAV (Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning), Amazon S3 and Rackspace Cloud Files.
alexalexAnother great one I recommend (Open Source) is FileZilla

You can use Cyberduck.
You can use Macfusion, but it's not been updated for a while.
