Right now, i have a 25' phone cable coming out of the airport express or dsl modem to a phone jack down stairs. If i move the PC i think i might need a longer cable, which apparently is a no no at the lenght i have now.
as has been noted, you already have a wireless router (the Airport Express), which apparently works with your iBook, so it should need no further configuration; you'll just need to set up your Windows machine to for wifi (which i won't attempt to explain)
alternatively, it sounds like you may have a working ethernet connection to the Windows machine for wifi, perhaps from an ethernet port on the back of the DSL modem; if so, then you could just run a longer ethernet cable to the DSL modem -- these cables can be very long without degrading the signal as can happen with long telephone cables
