a) the standard ssh port is 22, the ssh port on IPcop is 222.
b) when you install winscp, you are asked is "advanced option mode" 
   should be enabled. I know that wish to enable it.
c) When you create a new session, make sure to enter port 222!

You need to "forward" the ssh port of your XP box.
I assume you have installed an ssh server on the XP box?
WinSCP is NO ssh server!

>I wonder what I am doing wrong. 

Usually it is of BIG use if you always post the EXACT error messages
you see.
a) Other with the same problem will at least find your question
b) Other who may help you do not have to "suggest" what might have happend.

Where, what error measage?

Too it would be nice if you document the exact toolsnkl. cersions
you use.

Why is that called "add on server" ?
I would call ist "ssh problem"
