First you need to either know the root password or you need to set the password for another user.

I'm using filezilla on ubuntu and everything went fine at very first attempt. I also set up fixed IP for my N900 and make a bookmark in filezilla so SSH is just a click away.
edit:
And of course, you have to turn SSH on on your N900. Either with applet (install separately) in your status bar or via terminal.
nfollow the procedure again, and winscp still just disapears, when i click login :-(
edit, also tried pinging my n900 and got this reply

So you phone is reachable from you PC on 192.168.2.2 so something else is blocking WinSCP. Look at the PC's firewall.

ok, well, at least you are connecting now, even if a little slowly.
I do find winscp can't see the device if it's not awake so to speak....
on the device try pinging something else, or loading a website as you try conencting via winscp (I normally just have facebook on in the background, as it is an internet whore)...
The other thing, if you can, dicsonnect or turn of any pc firewalls etc, just to confirm it's not that.

I have the same problem as thesnake505 and solve it as "off" the firewall of windows7 while I made ssh session.

Apart from winscp there is apso putty, that opens a ssh-terminal on your windows host. Try it.
If you can ping the N900 there probably is no firewall active.
Finally you can try 'telnet 192.168.2.2. 22' from the windows commandline to see if the N900 listens on the ssh port (22).
BTW: do you have a password for the 'user' acount on the N900? Perhaps winscp refuses to work if the password field id empty? You can remedy that with 'passwd user' from the n900 commandline.
