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.
