Turn on file sharing, allow it through the firewall.

I don't know how easy it would be to share out arbitrary files, I think Mac OS X usually shares out particular directories in users home directories.

If this isn't a legit Mac OS X install, please stop being a dick.

There are a bunch of ways to do it. Simple was is enable file sharing like n0c said, and when you connect you can mount the whole disks or the user home dir, depending on the user you connect. Then there is smb and nfs.

You, if you are interested in playing a little bit, run the built in ssh server and use SFTP. Then for your windows box you can find a GUI SFTP client.
