You need a TTY program that allows you to access your server and run commands on it from your local winblows machine. If you do not have such a program try PuTTY at <http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html>.
Once you get the TTY working you log in, and enter the commands I gave. You may need to spend some time in a Linux book or a Linux web site before you are ready to try installing.

I previously downloaded mailman-2.1.2.tgz and mailman-2.1.2.tgz.asc to my
hard disk. I'm using Win98SE and IE6.
