I have downloaded the CGI.pm to my Windows machine.  Do I need a C

Neither.  CGI is a core Perl module.  Nothing external needs to be
installed.  You had no reason to download CGI.pm.  Just use it:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use CGI;
# . . .

To determine if a module is already installed on your machine:

*NIX:  perl -M<module> -e ''
DOS:   perl -M<module> -e ""

Example: perl -MCGI -e ''

If it doesn't complain, it's installed.
