recursive scp from NT to unix stalls.?

Question

I run a scp -r command from hp unix box to a NT box (which I don't hav access to) to pull pdf files down to unix. there are bout 300 file in the dir where i pull them from. scp pulls about 20-30 of them and then says "stalled 0%". it does not stop on the same file. I also tried tar'ing all the files, gzipa nd then scp'ing the one file down but still the stall occurs. any help is appritiated.

Try adding the "-C" to the command, to compress on the fly.
