You first need to download and install Python on your Windows XP box.
The windows installer for Python 2.6.5 is at
<http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.6.5/python-2.6.5.msi>

Then, if your list's web admin interface were for example
<http://www.example.com/mailman/admin/listname>, you would at a cmd
prompt type

cd (the folder where you saved mailman-subscribers.py)
python mailman-subscribers.py -c -o output-file.csv www.example.com
listname password

The last line starting with python and ending with password is all one
line, not wrapped as here. output-file.csv is the name of the file to
receive the csv and password is the list's admin password.

You might also need to use the -u option if the admin interface URL is
not of the above form.
