Cannot copy files from WindowsXP PC to remote UNIX server

I installed and started WinSCP 3.0, and have connected to my remote server successfully. My problem is when I try to copy a file from my PC to the server (Ensim control panel). I have scanned the forum for help, but I am lost as to what I need to do. I am a novice in dealing with most of these things, so please explain in detail. Attached is the log of the error:

Re: Cannot copy files from WindowsXP PC to remote UNIX server

You server does not have scp1 binary or it is not in path. Try to select SFTP protocol on login dialog.
