Fred real quick: In this text from the link you sent me below: *G. Moving files* If you are not familiar with the command-line, you can download all of your files to your desktop and then upload them to your new host using FTP. However, this process can be very slow. I recommend using secure copy (scp) instead. Where is SCP? Dos box? My-SQL? Drush?

I have a remote site set up on Bluehost. Now I have finally got around to setting up wamp, drush etc on the local machine. What is the best way to import/download/migrate the remote site to the local server?
