The documentation is inexact here (and needs to be fixed). You need to put
the default_configuration.ini file in either:
c:\Program Files\SpamBayes\bin
Or
c:\Documents and Settings\scottm\Application Data\SpamBayes
And it will work as advertised. Don't have the quotes in the filename - the
space shouldn't make any difference.
