I would like to add the suggested "Activiation" code to the .emacs file but
I can't figure out which one it is.  I downloaded the
emacs-23.1-bin-i386.zip file for windows.

You have to create it yourself in your home directory.  Have a look
here:

When you do C-x C-f to open a file just put in ~/.emacs and hit RET --
Emacs will open the file in the appropriate place. On Windows XP this is
C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\.emacs and on
Windows 7 it's C:\Users\username\AppData\.emacs

Don't know about other Windows versions.

Unrelatedly, why did you download the binary for Emacs 23.1 instead of
23.3?
