sftp is part of ssh, unless you have ssh accounts on these system you
will not be able to use it.  To allow sftp to work without the need
for a passwd you need have you public key in the system that is to
receive it and public key must be in the file ~/.ssh2/authorization
on the machine you are trying to access.
As far as I know google and yahoo does not have this capability.
